Throughout history, people have come together to imagine new possibilities for justice, dignity, and community. Few movements captured this spirit as vividly as the Black Panther Party.

Thank you to everyone who joined the Green Party of Minnesota Iftar Fundraiser with Dr. Butch Ware! And thank you to the organizers, the prospective GPMN Muslim-American Caucus!

Mahmoud Khalil, a lawful permanent resident, recent graduate, and husband to a U.S. citizen who is eight months pregnant with their child, was dragged away from his Columbia University home by ICE this weekend at the behest of the White House.

Green Party gubernatorial candidate Dr. Butch Ware issued a strong condemnation today in response to Governor Gavin Newsom’s announcement that he would veto AB 15 if it passed the California legislature. Reaffirming his support for the bill, Ware said:

I'm proud to announce my campaign for Governor of California in 2026 as a Green Party candidate — not as a politician, but as a father, a scholar of revolution, and a lifelong soldier for justice.

This isn't about "politics as usual." This is a rebellion against a system rigged by corporations — a rebellion for our survival.
