Nature for Sale
(6.9 MB Quicktime Movie)
The area in this video is Hiawatha Avenue (Highway 55) in Minneapolis. In 2002, this was the site of protest, as sacred trees in four directions once stood as a sacred site. After much political wrangling, controversy, and the eventual eviction of activists, and the bulldozing of trees, highway 55 was expanded in this area. I found a row of trees for sale along the bike path, which I found very ironic. Enjoy the movie.
