Twin Cities Indymedia isn't a typical media outlet.  Like all Indymedia collectives worldwide, we don't claim neutrality.  Instead, our passionate coverage comes directly from inside social movements--movements in which our volunteers participate.

Together, through our popular website and our less visible community work, we and you both make trouble for imperialism, injustice and oppression.

To continue doing so, we need to make a little money, too.  Please contribute today, either through a one-time or sustaining monthly donation.

Reminding us of its nationalist/fascist roots, as the carefully stage-managed 2010 Olympics gets underway in Vancouver, around a billion dollars have been expended on security theater measures. While Canadian authorities want to encourage people to attend the Olympics, Canadian border and customs officials (Canadian Border Services Agencies) have teamed up to suppress the movement of Indymedia and other independent media reporters into Canada.
