Dave Tilsen wrote this great post about the DFL's proposed constitutional change to the way larger cities do their endorsements and why it was a no-good, bad, terrible idea. https://southsidepride.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tilsen.jpg
But guess what! By the time it came out (today) the amendment had been defeated, along with several other bad amendments and bad resolutions in a wave of progressive wins in Duluth this past weekend. This was brought about by a stupendous organizing push called the Progressive Delegate Network (PDN), a project with ties to the Uncommitted hopeful presidential nominating delegates, the ceasefire-now end-Gaza-genocide movement, several unions, and other coalition partners.

It was a heady time up there in Duluth. I (Deb Ramage) rode up to Duluth and back with Dave, and we are both in our 70s, both in the thick of this movement, and we were utterly exhausted. I am just now recovering a little bit. But I think it was worth it. We are sending a cracking list of Uncommitted delegates to Chicago, including our two PLEO (party leader or elected official) delegates, Minneapolis City Council member Jeremiah Ellison, and Samuel Doten, whose idea the PDN was in the first place and who worked tirelessly to defeat toxic amendments and get other good delegates and party leaders elected.

From Confessions of an Unrepentant Maoist by Ed Felien--beginning on page 18:

"Janice Crabb, an old friend, was den mother of the Eater House. She was getting welfare, had a housing supplement and food stamps and wanted to share her largess with interesting people who might attract young people to help with the cooking and minding the children."

The big debate in local media is, “Is Uptown dead and if so, whose fault is it, and why are they not getting as much help as downtown?” OK, technically that’s three debates. But only if the answer to the first one is “yes.”

After much research though, I answer "no."

The Historic Coliseum Building at the corner of 27th and Lake Street is nearly finished! Mark your calendars to join us for the Grand Opening as part of the Soul of the Southside Festival on June 19th!

When the building opens to the public in June, visitors can look forward to drinks and food with a New Orleans flair at a new ground-floor full-service bar and restaurant by Du Nord Social Spirits and connect with many other BIPOC-owned small businesses. The Coliseum Building will also reclaim its roots as a gathering space for the community with a new event center.

The Coliseum building was one of the structures damaged in the civil unrest that occurred in 2020 in response to the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police.

A key part of the neighborhood’s healing process, the recovery of the Coliseum Building is one of the most significant redevelopment projects along the Lake Street corridor.

The goal of this project is to create generational wealth for BIPOC small business owners through the equitable redevelopment of a site that bears the scars of the community’s pain.

In partnership with three BIPOC small business owners s – Alicia Belton (Urban Design Perspectives), Janice Downing (Common Sense Consulting), and Shanelle Montana (Du Nord Social Spirits) – the historic building has been brought back to life, ensuring long-term affordability for up to 30 BIPOC and local entrepreneurs/small businesses.

Interested in leasing retail, meeting, event, or office spaces in this newly-renovated historic building? Let us know: https://bit.ly/coliseum-leasing

You can also attend a leasing preview as part of Doors Open Minneapolis May 18-19 to appreciate the historic elements of this 107-year-old structure.

Want to keep up with this and other projects in the neighborhood? Sign up for our newsletter: https://redesigninc.org/newsletter/

Art installations pay tribute to Puerto Rico
Public Functionary will host “Blood Memory,” an exhibit showcasing five installations by Cándida González, a q***r, trans, nonbinary Puerto Rican artist from south Minneapolis.
These installations challenge traditional representations of altars, using various media such as collage, photography, audio, and everyday objects to explore grief, memory, ancestry, and the resilience of diasporic communities.

Cándida González’s photo collage “Alicia” will be on display at Public Functionary through April 13, 2024. Credit: Provided by Cándida González

Drilling down into the county results and behind the scenes details of Tuesday’s results shows Michigan wasn’t a flash in the pan. Democratic disgust with Joe Biden’s genocide support is deep and widespread — enough to seriously threaten his reelection.
