Minneapolis Streets.

I work on the streets of Minneapolis.

Over the past several years, my focus has been public space. Photographing from inside moments as they unfold. What began with documenting the city after the George Floyd uprising expanded into protests, homeless encampments, and everyday life on the street.

This work continues as events shift and tensions change. The images here are made on the ground, close to what’s happening.

I have not had time to look at my work from the 15th when I was taken down by ICE at the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis. These are the only two shots I have looked at. They are the last two shots I took, moments before my world went dark. #TearGasIsABitch #Teargas #PepperSpray #Handcuffs #journalism

Photo by Pierre Lavie. I was tackled by ice agents and surrounded by about 50 border police. Just for taking photos. I tossed my camera to another Photographer to make sure it wouldn’t be confiscated. #gettyreportage #getty at the Whipple Federal building in Minneapolis. @nytimes @leica_boutique_ukraine @leicacamerausa @washpostphoto @leica_camera @leica_fotografie_international @apnews @reuters

These images are from the Powderhorn Park protest in Minneapolis, where tens of thousands of peaceful demonstrators, according to organizers, gathered following the killing of René Good, who was shot by ICE agent Jonathan Ross during a federal immigration enforcement operation. Protesters filled the park and surrounding streets to mourn Good’s death and to demand accountability, repeatedly emphasizing that the demonstration remained nonviolent despite its size and intensity. The protest unfolded amid growing national unrest, with similar demonstrations taking place across the United States. Federal officials say around 2,000 ICE and other Department of Homeland Security agents are already present in Minnesota, with hundreds more expected to arrive this week, a deployment announced by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The expanding federal presence has heightened concerns among demonstrators, making Minnesota a focal point in the broader national debate over immigration enforcement, use of force, and civil rights. #ReneGood #JusticeForRene #JonathanRoss #AbolishICE #IceOutForGood

Yesterday in Minneapolis, Minnesota, I photographed a large protest sparked by the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and mother of three who was shot and killed by an ICE agent during a federal immigration enforcement operation. Local news reports have identified the agent who fired the shots as Jonathan Ross, a member of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations, though federal authorities have not officially confirmed his identity. In the tense hours after the shooting, masked federal agents moved Ross away from the scene to a discreet, undisclosed location — a move that has fueled further outrage and calls for transparency in how the investigation is being handled. The protest in Minnesota drew people from across the Twin Cities — neighbors, families, organizers, and photographers — all expressing grief, anger, and demands for accountability. Chants for justice for Renee rang out alongside calls to reevaluate the role of ICE in local communities. Demonstrations like this one are also happening across the United States, where activists and residents are tying Good’s death to broader concerns about federal immigration enforcement, civil rights, and use of force. These photos show a community demanding answers and remembrance for Renee, with voices raised not just in Minneapolis but in cities nationwide. #ReneeGood #JonathanRoss #JusticeForRenee #AbolishICE #NoJusticeNoPeace

Protests are continuing in Minneapolis following the killing of Renee Nicole Good, who was shot and killed by an ICE agent during a federal immigration operation earlier this week. Authorities say the agent acted in self-defense, a claim that family members and community advocates strongly dispute. Demonstrators have been gathering downtown, including outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building, which houses ICE offices. Protesters are calling for accountability, transparency, and an end to aggressive ICE operations in the city. The protests have been largely peaceful, though tensions remain high and police have made some arrests. Organizers say the demonstrations will continue in the coming days as outrage over Good’s death spreads locally and nationally. #JusticeForRenee #ReneeNicoleGood #MinneapolisProtest #ICEOut #WhippleBuilding AbolishICE @CityofMpls @MayorFrey @GovTimWalz @IlhanMN @ICEgov @ACLU_MN @minnesota50501 @miracmn

At the October 18 #nokings protests, organizers claimed over 7 million participants across more than 2,700 events nationwide. (aclu.org) Beyond the U.S., solidarity demonstrations also occurred in countries such as Sweden, Portugal, and Spain—indicating an international dimension to the movement. (en.wikipedia.org) In the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, the local turnout for the October 2025 protest was estimated to be between 100,000 and 150,000 people. (unicornriot.ninja) This places the Twin Cities rally among the larger‑urban demonstrations in that wave and demonstrates significant presidential discontent. Meanwhile, Donald Trump continued to warn that cities like Seattle were being “overrun with crime,” though on the ground protesters included people in inflatable dinosaur suits, nude cyclists, and accordion-playing seniors—hardly the urban apocalypse he described. It seemed the only thing truly under siege was anyone trying to find a parking spot near the protest and carrying your coffee without getting bumped. #protest @indivisible_twincities @indivisibleteam #NoKings #ProtestPower #MinneapolisProtests #InflatableDinosaurs #NakedBikeRide #AccordionJustice #PeacefulProtest #DemocracyInAction #Indivisible #CivicCarnival #MakeSandwichesNotDictators #StreetPhotography #GlobalSolidarity #handmaidstale #handmaidstale @handmaids_of_mn

Two radical left unicorns trotted through downtown Minneapolis, hooves clacking on the sparkling pavement, shouting “No Kings!” into the mist while the violent frog-suit guy from Seattle livestreamed from a parallel protest dimension. They waved banners made from old Pride capes, demanding reparations for mythical creatures and the immediate demilitarization of fairyland. Overhead, news drones buzzed like horseflies, broadcasting rumors that Trump was considering deploying the Unicorn National Guard to restore order after last week’s glitter riot. One unicorn sipped from a reusable oat-milk thermos and muttered, “It’s always peaceful until the humans send in unmarked black vehicles,” while the other adjusted their horn and wondered whether revolutions ever work in cities where parking still costs $20 an hour. @indivisible_twincities #nokings #protest #protestphotography #unicorn #frogman #streetphotos #streetphotography #bnw_photography #bnwlovers #bnwstreetphotography @leicacamerausa @leica_boutique_ukraine
