Transportation Reform and the Fight Against ICE Violence in Minneapolis

January 27, 2026·12 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Protests are raging in the streets of Minneapolis and across the country as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents accelerate their campaign to deport migrants — with increasingly violent and deadly results, particularly in the transportation realm. But what is the transportation reform advocate's role in that fight? And can the battle to remake our violent transportation system help support the goal of making the entire country less susceptible to violent governments?  We're sitting with those difficult questions on today's episode of the Brake, as well as the deaths of Renee Good, Alex Pretti, Silverio Villegas Gonzales, and more.
