[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Inspired and honored to be starting a vigil with ICOM, the Minnesota Council of Churches and the Episcopal Church in Minnesota to decry the dehumanizing treatment of immigrants within a building named after Bishop Henry Whipple. What Would Whipple Do?

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Excited to hear ⁦@D4Commish⁩ talk about going beyond immigrant legal defense toward a full sanctuary county model that provides sustainable legal defense and holds ICE responsible for their behavior on county property. Hennepin Cty must stand with immigrant residents. ⁦

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Inspired to hear Rico’s story at Henn Cty District 4 forum. You can’t heal from generational trauma as an individual, you do it in community. Our sheriff and district attorney must play a more restorative role. Thank you @ISAIAHMN and @D4Commish for collaborating on this event.

Thank you @Pontifex for reminding us that every family deserves to be welcomed in new lands, just as my family from the Philippines was. #WDMR2019

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

It is on days like today that I am so proud to be a Catholic. The gospel is clear. If Jesus were reborn today, it would be as a refugee from a war torn place like Syria. How would we welcome Him? #WDMR2019 #JesusWasARefugee

It's not just about migrants, it's about all of us, about the human family, called to build together a world more in accord with God's plan. #NotJustAboutMigrants @M_RSection

In the midst of so much darkness, to be with St Joan of Arc and ICOM at a detention center vigil brings my heart light and hope.

@soullaotruck Are you out this weekend? Would love to find you!

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Proud to be part of another census doorknock in north Minneapolis with AAOP and the State of MN. Need to make sure every resident is counted, seen and heard. #WeCountMN

[ISAIAH @ISAIAHMN]

.#MNisOurHome - regardless of immigration status. Today, America took a blow to safety & due process by Trump - he continues cultivating a toxic atmosphere of fear & division, attempting to break the spirits of immigrant populations & those who love them. https://t.co/f9hrkpYzuF

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Great turnout at Whipple to oppose family separation and inhumane detention. I want to believe that most Minnesotans and Americans agree but my faith is shaken. I need to get to work to rekindle it. I hope you join me. #LightsforLiberty

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

What my mom needs for #MothersDay is to know that her kids have access to child care and health care so they can care for themselves and their families. #MNLeg can make it happen this session. #FullyFundCCAP #HealthCare4All @ISAIAHMN

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Inspired to be here with kids of many cultures demanding access to equitable sustainable and culturally relevant pre-K education. Seeing the face of our future reminds me why we fight so hard. Our legislators need to remember that Kids Count On Us!

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Thx Rep Mariani for strong leadership on Post Conviction Relief for MN refugee communities. If it is good for Cambodian, Filipinx, Lao, Puerto Rican & Mexican families, it is good for MN. API Day @ the Capitol.

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Great to see inspiring young leaders like Rep Vang at API Day @ the Capitol & to hear that our Asian Pacific caucus wants the same things as all Minnesotans: a state that welcomes immigrants, equitable education, access to health care and strong voter rights.

Light rail outside Whipple blocked by ppl of faith to disrupt our immoral deportation regime #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Amazing people of faith steadfast in welcoming the stranger even if it means arrest. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

We’re telling the truth about this monument to colonization today. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Standing with our neighbors, we shall not be moved. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Gregory King @MNgregking]

Excited to support Muslim Day on the hill. Beautiful reminder that our diversity is our strength. I thank our Islamic neighbors for demanding a better Minnesota for all.
