      @Myke664 it's Tree Trust. It's a county program that pays youth minimum wage for city and park maintenance stuff. I did it years ago. No way 40 trees cost 40k. If I paid out of pocket for 40 trees I'd be not even at 10k..

      It's funny you mention blacks and indigenous people of Minnesota. Statistically speaking, Minnesota is among the top 10 worst states in the country when it comes to academic achievement between whites and non-whites, as well as rich and poor. Basically, if you're a white person, and you're living in Minnesota but not doing well for yourself, especially academically speaking, you have no one else to blame except yourself - because on average, your race is doing significantly better and minorities there are doing way worse, even worse than they'd be doing in other states. But yes, tell me more about how $$$ is only being used to help black and indigenous people there LOL

      This isn't funny but I am kind of laughing because almost 30 years ago I worked at tree trust when I was a 13-year-old girl. They picked us up with a bus at the school (in summer) and drove us to a park. Then they handed us those giant hole diggers to scoop out the dirt... and then had us haul massive wooden posts to place in the holes. We were mostly 13/14 year old kids, including girls! 😅 As we all stood in a row outside with our diggers, the woman manager walked up and down the trail behind us, and screamed at us to shut up if we even spoke to each other. It was extremely hot and we got one 30 minute break. It was truly horrible. It was my first job. I quit after 4 days and with my $92 for 32 hours of work... I bought some hideous skirt in uptown with fur on the bottom. Worst first job ever! I wouldn't be surprised if it was young teenagers who were angry, if they were treated how I was.
