We started a new local Bund chapter in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St Paul. Our first action was a showing of the documentary "Isrealism" at a local independent theater, and it sold out. We proceeded to make a website, twincitiesbund.com. We met with Zach from Cafe Bund remotely and one of our members happened to be in Vienna and was able to meet up with him in person! Another one of our members will go to DC to participate in the People's March, joining the Bund contingent. We are currently planning a letter in response to some attempted intimidation of pro-Palestinian union activity. We connected with other local leftist anti-Zionist Jewish groups, and we were proud to make and share our new zines at the Southside Shtetl, a local pop-up Judaica marketplace. From our zine: "The recognition of all forms of repression, violence and exploitation as parts of the same machine of social control is instrumental to a complete theory of how to dismantle it."
