“Ice Out MSP” Filter Blockade on Cedar Avenue
Taken February 2026
On February 1, 2026, protesters in South Minneapolis established "filter blockades" on Cedar Avenue as part of a response to Operation Metro Surge. These makeshift structures, resembling roundabouts, were erected to facilitate community organizing and monitor traffic in opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations.
