The Minnesota Freedom Fighters formed in the summer of 2020 when Leslie Redmond received calls from Black-owned businesses, Black-owned establishments, and churches that were being burned and attacked in North Minneapolis during the Uprising after the murder of George Floyd. What started as the Minnesota Freedom Riders has morphed into a new way to imagine community safety and security.

The documentary features a variety of local perspectives and was created by Helene Francis & Simon Hoffmann, student filmmakers. The class uses digital media-making as a way to foster collaboration and storytelling around social justice issues.

A production of the South High School Minneapolis VOICES class with support from The Minnesota Youth Story Squad at the University of Minnesota and Twin Cities PBS.
