I can play a blade of grass too. It my house had the same grass. My house was demolished in the 90’s after my mom sold it to the state and we bought another house nearby !!!
They tire thru the beautiful & classic Rhondo neighborhood with I94, took out some of the most winderful homes in Minneapolis with 35W & practically put a freeway thru the basement of the first Basilica west of the Mississippi, again for I94. That's what happens when you trust the judgement of people with no taste & no heart - like government.
The only part of the video that I don’t like is when he’s talking over muted video of Evelyn Fairbanks speaking. I feel like they could have put his part elsewhere so that we could have heard more from her but that’s just my opinion.
I think the neighborhood displaced by the Expressway most likely relocated to Snelling and South Snelling Avenue. Snelling Avenue is now the relocated Rondo.
This is so sad. One out of every 8 homeowners displaced...for a highway. Unreal.
The look on Evelyn's face when she was given the photos of her childhood home is priceless! 🙂
They cut thru some really nice neighborhoods like the marcy/ Holmes neighborhood in Minneapolis when they built 35W.
I love her Minnesotan accent! It’s so beautiful, just like her!
My family home was on the freeway. I grew up looking at those houses everyday from across the freeway !

I hope black people were treated better here in the old days then they were in many other places.
I’m pretty sure they will
Good story since George Floyd death its interesting to know black culture of the state and its cities
