Thousands of protesters took to the streets of Minneapolis on Friday, January 30, in the latest show of anger over President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, as a prominent US journalist was charged over his coverage of protests in the northern city. People marched with signs blasting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the agency leading Trump's mass deportation drive, in response to a call for a "national shutdown" across the United States.
Minneapolis has become the epicenter of the immigration policy backlash after two protesters, both US citizens, were shot dead by federal agents this month.
The crowd gathered in freezing temperatures after Bruce Springsteen performed at an anti-ICE concert in the city. The US rock legend recently released "Streets of Minneapolis," a tribute to the two killed protesters.
