Kieran Knutson is a labor activist, organizer, and the recently elected
President of Communication Workers Local 7250. Knutson is also an
important voice in anti-racist struggles in the Twin Cities, an
epicenter of the movement since the police murder of George Floyd and
the more recent police murder of Daunte Wright.
Knutson was one of a small number of labor activists who took action in
response to state repression of protests after the murder of Daunte
Wright. Their protest led to the eviction of National Guard soldiers and
resources housed at the St. Paul Labor Center. Knutson provided a
powerful response to the reaction on the part of not only the Right, but
also the mainstream of the Democatic Party and the political
establishment generally. Following Knutson, in defence of unity and
solidarity between the workers’ movement, the anti-racist and
abolitionist struggle, and the mutliracial youth in the street, Tempest
is excited to publish this interview.
