At least a dozen restaurants and coffee shops across metro Denver will close for service on Friday, Jan. 30, joining businesses in a nationwide general strike decrying the tactics of immigration and border agents in Minneapolis this month. Hundreds of businesses in Minnesota closed last Friday, one day before Alex Pretti, a Minneapolis resident, was shot and killed by border patrol agents in a confrontation. “This is one thing we feel we can actually do that might make a difference,” said co-owner Anna Nguyen. Chinese restaurant MAKfam is advertising 30% of sales would go to the Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network and the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition.
