 picture 02/24 ...as i return to visit the Leech Lake band of Ojibwe indians, very little has changed. indian reservations in america are generally poor areas with grave social concerns, yet still they manage to hold their heads high. indian culture is experiencing a wave of revivalism, and more and more young ojibwas are increasingly interested in their roots. at the same time alcoholism, poverty and all sorts of abuse looms over those who succumb. |

Track 33 is small, just four by four blocks, yet has the reputation of being the worst neightbourhood in the state of Minnesota, with drugs flowing and gangs fighting. |
