Guarding Minnesota’s Peace: A Call to Deploy the National Guard
TL;DR Summary
A MinnPost Community Voices column argues that Governor Walz should deploy the Minnesota National Guard to 'hold the peace' amid protests, contending that civilian authorities are overwhelmed and drawing a parallel to federal troops safeguarding civil rights marchers in Selma; the piece frames intervention as a protective measure for Black and Brown children and peaceful protesters, while urging nonviolent resistance and questioning how fear is harnessed today.
