I hope this man never represent anybody, I didn't understand what he is talking about.

The flowery Af-Soomaali used by campaign spokesman Abdulqudus is indicative of a paradigm shift, a deepening of the bench of sort. Gone are the days of our young folks parading English as some sort of a prerequisite for being "intelligent". What you just saw in that video is a sample of an underground movement started by none other than the likes of Abdulqudus and his generation to shift the dialogue away from the usual medium. The roles are reversed today Awoowe. Those who speaks with such high level Af-Soomaali will be in the best position to benefit our community the most. It is remarkable!!

The new map of Ward 6. The map covers most of the Somali dominated neighborhoods of Minneapolis. Abdi Warsame and his team proposed and fought for it.

 

[Libaax-Sankataabte]

Another huge endorsement under his belt; The Sierra Club.

 

[Che -Guevara]

Good luck to the kid!

 

Hopefully, this is teaching moment for our us in the States. We needs to be at the table.

Abdi Warsame secures another big endorsement. Jeff Hayden gives his blessing to this historic campaign.
