Dakota Indians block wagon train near Fort Snelling
Minneapolis, Minnesota (AP)
Protesters blocked the Minnesota Sesquicentennial Wagon Train for about an hour as it reached Historic Fort Snelling, saying the state’s 150th birthday is no cause for celebration. About two dozen people, including many Dakota carried signs in the rain, burned sage and beat on drums while singing. Two of them lay on the wet pavement in front of horses pulling the first of several dozen wagons on their way from Cannon Falls to the Sesquicentennial celebration in St. Paul. |
