From the beginning, MN8’s origin is a love story about communities protecting their loved ones and fighting for freedom. MN8 began as a grassroots campaign in August 2016, formed by the families of 8 Cambodian Minnesotans to prevent their detention and deportation by U.S. Immigration Customs and Enforcement. Our story begins with these 8 remarkable individuals, their families, and the deep love that carried them through. Since then, our campaign has bloomed into an abolitionist nonprofit organization that fights for the rights and liberation of Southeast Asian communities. We fight to return justice and dignity to our people and build collective power towards shared liberation. We believe those who are most impacted must have power, agency, and resources for change to happen. Through organizing, advocating, providing community care, and building collective community power, we are committed to creating a world of joy, liberation, and justice. Together we can build a future where every individual and family thrive across generations.
