Aliya Rahman, the disabled Minneapolis woman that was dragged out of her car and arrested while on her way to a doctor's appointment, describes what happened after the viral incident, including the nightmarish conditions at the Whipple detention center. "Approaching the Whipple Center, I saw Black and Brown bodies shackled together, chained together, being marched by yelling agents outdoors. I continue to hear the word 'bodies' because that is how agents to us. 'We're bringing in a body.' 'They're bringing in bodies, 78 at a time. Where do I put them?' 'We can't use that room. There's already a body in there.' You have no reason to believe you will make it out alive if you are already being called a body." "Agents repeatedly had to stop and ask how to do tasks. I received no medical screening, phone call or access to a lawyer. I was denied a communication navigator when my speech began to slur. Agents laughed as I tried to immobilize my own neck. I asked for my cane and was told no, pulled up my arms and prodded forward and leg irons by agents laughing and saying, 'Walk, you can do it, walk.' Agents did not know if the facility had a wheelchair. When I was finally placed in one to be taken to interrogation, and agent taunted, 'You were driving, right? So your legs do work.'" "I pleaded for emergency medical care for over an hour after my vision had become blurry, and my heart rate went through the roof, and the pain in my neck and head became unbearable. It was denied. When I became unable to speak, my cellmate pleaded for me. The last sounds I remember before I blacked out on the cell floor where my cellmate banging on the door, pleading for a medic and a voice outside saying, 'We don't want to step on ICE's toes.' When I opened my eyes at Hennepin County's emergency room, I learned I was brought there to be treated for assault."

Jaylen Brown says fasting “saved my life” and strengthened his mental health “Giving your body a chance. You spend so much time focusing on digesting and breaking down stuff. When there's nothing in your system, your body can use that energy to go through so many different things, like to heal yourself, to make yourself have a little bit more clarity, or just your body starts to function in different ways when you have the energy to do so” “How it's helped me in my craft is that it also pushes and challenges you. When you challenge your body by fasting and challenge your spirit, you also challenge your mental as well. It's your ability to persevere, your ability now to remain calm in adverse situations. I think fasting has helped me in that” “It's increased my mental health, and I've said it before, in a lot of ways it's really saved my life. We go through trauma. We all have issues and things that we deal with on this planet that have an effect on us because we're humans. The state of your mind, the state of your well-being, can determine how you go forward from those moments” “Being able to have strong mental health, being able to endure life's challenges, is a great skill set. I think fasting has helped me in that regard, developing that so that now when you reach these moments of adversity, these moments of anxiety, of angst, depression, that you're able to persevere because you've practiced it” “If your body can go without water and food, your body can go without a lot of these other things, distractions, stress, and whatever is causing you depression, whatever is causing your lack of mental health. Actively challenge yourself because that's where growth happens, not from comfort”
