An Oromo protest march took place in Northeast Minneapolis, with participants advocating for human rights and political change in Ethiopia. The protest highlighted concerns over the unrest affecting the Oromo people, including calls for justice for figures like Hachalu Hundessa, an Oromo singer and activist whose assassination sparked widespread unrest. Demonstrators carried signs criticizing the Ethiopian government and its leadership, specifically Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, and demanded the release of political prisoners. This march reflects the Oromo diaspora's ongoing efforts to raise awareness and support for their community's struggles in their homeland.
