Earlier this week, federal agents in Minneapolis fired tear gas at screaming crowds just blocks from the site where an ICE officer killed U.S. citizen Renee Good last week. The chemical irritant, designed to disperse protesters, sent people choking and blinking through its burning haze 🔥😷.
Good’s death has ignited demonstrations from Los Angeles and Washington D.C. to Kansas City, Missouri, as activists demand accountability and an end to aggressive law enforcement tactics. Tear gas, a common crowd-control tool, can cause eye irritation, coughing, and short-term breathing difficulties — symptoms many young protesters are sharing in real time on social media.
Across platforms like Twitter and Instagram, #JusticeForRenee is trending as South and Southeast Asian youth watch closely, drawing parallels to their own communities’ calls for justice. This wave of digital solidarity shows how tech-savvy young people can amplify voices and support movements halfway around the globe ✊🌏.
As the situation unfolds, activists are urging peaceful gatherings and livestreams to keep the conversation alive. Stay tuned for updates, stay safe, and remember: every voice matters.
