Racist speeches and intimidation of minority groups are not welcome in Minneapolis
On July 8 in response to a chaotic July 4 in the Mill District in which people shot off fireworks from cars, Mike Rainville held a meeting with an overwhelmingly white crowd at Kramarczuk's in Northeast Minneapolis.
Video of July 4 does not indicate that the people involved were Somali-Americans or from Minneapolis.
Rainville closed off city streets with the help of the Minneapolis police department, an authority he does not have. During the event, Interim Chief Amelia Huffman joined Rainville.
During the event, Rainville led the crowd in chants that they were taking back the streets.
Within days, Rainville's comments drew ire from the Minneapolis DFL, the vast majority of the city council, and DFL legislators.
This story is continuing to evolve. A running list of condemnations and events are being kept by Josh Martin (Twitter: @JoshMartinMpls)
