US EditionGeorge Floyd and Renee Good: 5 Years Between Minneapolis Videos, and Confusion Has Increased
Following the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent, Minneapolis' Somali community formed patrols to protect residents amid intensified immigration enforcement.
- A Minneapolis family reported that ICE officers rolled a tear gas canister under their SUV, flooding it and leaving their six‑month‑old infant in respiratory distress and hospitalized, while other family members also received treatment.
- After ICE agent Jonathan Ross fatally shot Renee Nicole Good on January 7, about 3,000 federal officers deployed under Operation Metro Surge intensified Minneapolis protests and memorial events.

- Federal authorities and the White House signaled tougher responses, with an FBI probe underway into damaged federal vehicles and thefts offering up to $100,000, while President Donald Trump warned he might deploy troops.
- Longer term, the TPS revocation and ICE's growth under the current administration increase legal and safety risks for Somali residents, as the administration announced it will end Temporary Protected Status for Somalis in March and advocates cite expanded ICE authority and past wrongful‑detention cases.

I remember learning about the Statue of Liberty as a kid. Not the politics. The feeling. The torch. The water. The idea that someone was standing at the edge of the country, holding a light, saying you can come in now. It felt settled. Like a promise you weren’t allowed to question. I didn’t think about it again for a long time. Until Renee Good. Renee Good is dead. Shot in South Minneapolis. And the news cycle is doing what it always does. It’s…
