While the White House can try to pretend that Bruce Springsteen‘s anti-ICE song, “Streets of Minneapolis” — which denounces the killing of unarmed U.S. citizens, including Renée Good, and federal tyranny — is “irrelevant,” Springsteen, the people of Minneapolis, and U.S. citizens across the country loudly disagree. On Friday afternoon, a benefit concert organized by Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, billed as “A Concert of Solidarity & Resistance to Defend Minnesota!”, kicked off at Minneapolis’ famed First Avenue club. The show was brought together to raise money for the families of Good and Alex Pretti, who were both fatally shot by ICE agents. Springsteen appeared onstage as the surprise guest and delivered the first live performance of the protest song to cheers in the crowd. “We are coming to Minneapolis where the people have heroically stood up against ICE, stood up against Trump, stood up against this terrible rising tide of state terror,” he continued.
