Resistance in Review: Twin Cities Indymedia Top 10 of 2010

[annm4peace]

The 2010 Resistance in Review – where to begin? TC Indymedia's feature archive alone contained well over 100 stories this year, from dealing with state repression to expanding resistance on our own terms.

Of everything that's happened in the past year, picking the “most important” would be impossible—but the following issues in particular lead us to think about the solidarity shown in 2010 as we aim to step it up in 2011.
