Bruce Springsteen is returning to the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area on Saturday, March 28 to appear at a No Kings rally and perform his protest song “Streets of Minneapolis,” which he released in late January after U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti were shot to death in Minneapolis by federal ICE agents. Springsteen performed the song live for the first time a few days after its release in an appearance at Minneapolis’ famous First Avenue club.

Springsteen’s song targets Donald Trump with lyrics referring to ICE as “Trump’s private army.” The music icon has regularly spoken out against the U.S. president, and it appears he’s not going to slow down during his upcoming tour. Springsteen announced earlier this year his “Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour” will kick off at Minneapolis’ Target Center on March 31.
