Abstract: I met Edain Altamirano in the office that Inquilinxs Unidxs Por Justicia (IX) shares with Centro de Trabajadores Unidos En La Lucha (CtUL) on George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. I had been walking among symbolic graves, and she had been on Zoom court with tenants testifying against their landlords. We were both tired but her smile was infectious, and I could see why even her silent presence on a call could soothe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
