Trump's DOJ has tried to smear these fifteen defendants by alleging that they are the ones who are really putting our community in danger.We know that ICE and Trump's fascist forces are the ones putting our communities at risk. This concert is a chance to come together to demonstrate our continued solidarity and courage in the face of increasing repression.The show will feature local heroes as well as artists from the broader community of antifascist musicians. All ticket proceeds go to the legal fund for the MN 15 (donate directly here). https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/be6b27e0-893d-11f1-a8a4-631b175f3d78-rimg-w555-h740-dc2c1d1a-gmir.jpg Carsie Blanton is a songwriter with hooks, chutzpah, and revolutionary optimism.
