Matt Baume offered up some Earth Day suggestions and wrote about Washington Trust for Historic Preservation s mission to catalogue sites of interest along our region s 3,000 miles of waterfront.

As we reported earlier here and here, Minneapolis erupted in riots again last night after a fatal police shooting involving 20-year-old Daunte Wright in the nearby town of Brooklyn Center.
They had stopped Wright for an alleged traffic violation and found out he had an outstanding warrant, according to the police. That’s when Wright tried to get back into his vehicle and one officer fired at him, hitting him. He drove several blocks before crashing. They gave him CPR but he died at the scene.
The riot was like a throwback to the end of May last year, after George Floyd’s death. Rioters looted and/or destroyed stores in Brooklyn Center including a Foot Locker, T Mobile, and a New York men’s clothing store, as well as stores all over Minneapolis. They destroyed multiple police vehicles and even shot up a police station.
