Advocates for unhoused people in the Twin Cities are scrambled to open warming centers during Monday's cold snap. In early January there were a string of fires at homeless encampments in Minneapolis this month. Two encampment fires ignited just six blocks apart on the same day in south Minneapolis. Advocates for the homeless say more than 200 people were displaced from the incidents. Two of those advocates are Christin Crabtree and Nicole Mason, who support unhoused people through Camp Nenookaasi. They're fundraising to buy land in the area to prevent people from getting displaced again. Crabtree and Mason joined Minnesota Now to talk about it.

We discuss the intersection of feminism and democracy and discover how the egalitarian underpinnings of feminism are fundamental to an equal society. Abortion bans illustrate this well. “Any time there's a conflict between the Constitution and someone's personal bodily autonomy and the subject of rights under the law, that is anti-democratic.”    Nicole's civic action toolkit recommendations are:  Start small, engaging directly in your community Maintain hope and optimism and believe that you're going where you want to go   Dr. C.

On today's episode of Hear Me Out: aprons off. Has there ever been a better time to be a woman in America? Probably not… but that's a low bar. Modern feminism is having trouble making a case for itself, in the face of a challenging economy and backslides in reproductive rights. So when women on social media present themselves as traditional wives and homemakers, achieving the self-actualization of heteronormativity, have they given up? Or are they showing us what feminist thought might be missing? Dr. C. Nicole Mason joins us to share her journey into the minds of tradwives… and her realization that they might have a point.

Updated: 4:45 p.m.The city of Minneapolis began clearing Camp Nenookaasi, a large encampment of unsheltered people, just before noon Thursday.More than 100 people have been living in tents and other temporary structures at Camp Nenookaasi for months. Most of the residents who have been living at the encampment are Native people.Police waited into the late morning for people to move out. There were no apparent confrontations between residents and police.Residents of the camp, located near the intersection of 23rd Street and 13th Avenue, started folding tents and gathering belongings after a pre-dawn breakfast. The mood was somber then purposeful as the sun came up.   As the day progressed, people gathered for a news conference held by the camp. The gathering included camp organizer Nicole Mason, Minneapolis council members Jason Chavez and Elliott Payne, Rep. Aisha Gomez, DFL-Minneapolis, residents and others.Tribal leadership also spoke. Red Lake Nation Tribal Secretary Sam Strong described the need for a healing center to be built in the area as an option for those needing services, and the Red Lake Nation being a partner in that pursuit.“Today is about creating a future where we can build this healing center,” said Strong. “The Red Lake Nation is committed to being that partner, to build a space where our people can go when it gets cold, to build a space where our people can learn and relearn our language, our culture, our way of life, the tools to bring them back into society, to bring them on the Red Road. And to do that, we need the cooperation of state, city, federal partners.”A Metro Transit bus was reportedly onsite to transport people leaving the camp to a warming center. Regina Medina updates Tom Crann on All Things Considered about the clearing of Camp Nenookaasi by Organizations in the area have expressed their concerns about the encampment. Sharon Day is the executive director of the Indigenous Peoples Task Force, which operates a housing complex adjacent to the encampment. Day outlined support of the camp's closure in a press release and listed several concerns related to the camp.“We are aware of the over 100 police reports, including sexual assault, human trafficking, other violence and drug trafficking,” wrote Day. “We are concerned about the fires burning within feet of residential buildings, including buildings clad in cedar. We have had vandalism including our vehicle being drilled to access fuel.” The Indigenous Peoples Task Force supports government leadership providing more resources for housing.Late last week, Minneapolis officials set the latest date for closure of the camp for Thursday morning. The city had previously delayed the closing twice because it was working to find places for camp residents to live, at least temporarily.   Camp organizer Nicole Mason said she will continue to work on their behalf. “My goal and their goal have not changed. They all want housing. We want the healing center. They want recovery,” Mason said. Many people in the camp struggle with opioid use disorder. A city of Minneapolis spokesperson said in a statement earlier in the week that dozens of former Nenookaasi residents are in more stable housing situations. For many residents, their next move is unknown. Some may take their belongings to another location nearby, others may relocate to one of the shelter beds provided by the city and county. A city spokesperson previously said that local shelters will make 90 beds available to camp residents.Two residents of the camp tried to stop the closure, but a federal judge denied their request for a halt late Wednesday. The residents said in part that the eviction would affect their health and that there were no clear plans to preserve their belongings.  

In our utmost solidarity, The Red Nation has remained diligent in responding and taking action in the movements toward Palestinian liberation. The Red Nation was joined by: Anthony from MN Anti-War Committee, Rachel Dionne-Thunder with Indigenous Protector Movement, Nicole Mason with Camp Nenookassi, Sana Wazwaz with American Muslims for Palestine, Jae Yates with Twin Cities Coalition for Justice 4 Jamar Clark, and David Gilbert Pederson with MN Workers United & Freedom Road Socialist Organization.

John and co-host Jason Garcia speak with Nicole Mason and Christin Crabtree, who are helping to organize a homeless encampment on city owned land, made up mostly of indigenous people, called Camp Nenookaasi. The City of Minneapolis has notified the camp that they will be evicted on December 14, which Nicole and Christin say will make it harder to deliver services and housing to camp residents. We talk about the city's recent history of encampment responses going back to the first Wall of Forgotten Natives back in 2018; and how the city's current practice of evictions is just pushing people from one neighborhood to the next, making it harder to provide services.

2021 began with the news that 111% of the net jobs lost in December of 2020 - 140,00 - belonged to womxn. According to the National Women's Law Center, men gained 16,000 jobs while womxn lost 156,000. The COVID-19 pandemic and the sprawling public health and economic disaster that followed in its wake have delivered a perfect storm of devastation for American womxn, especially womxn of color. Still, womxn were the best part of the past year. As the majority of the healthcare workforce, womxn were the backbone of the nation's pandemic care and response. Womxn have been organizing their communities well before the pandemic, but their passion and dedication made all the difference in elections up and down the ballot in November. It seems impossible to fully explain all the ways in which womxn held it down in the past year, but that's never stopped us before. In celebration of International Womxn's Day, Wagner Womxn hosted a panel discussion to discuss the unique circumstances and burdens impacting womxn in 2021 as a product of COVID-19. Panelists include Nicole Bateman, Kathryn Anne Edwards, Angela Garbes, and Dr. C. Nicole Mason. The conversation will be moderated by Amy Auton-Smith.
