Crossroads:
Every weekend
this summer, vacationers from all
over Minnesota and beyond its
borders have packed up the family
car and headed north to Highway 1.
The highway cuts a jagged route
across the top quarter of the state,
from North Dakota in the west to the
rocky shores of Superior in the
east, through farmland, reservation,
lake and lodge country. Travelling the
roads locals in Northern Minnesota use to
capture stories, history, culture, land and
people along the way. By producer Britt
Aamodt. |

The History of Finns:
The first Finnish
immigrants to arrive in Minnesota settled
here sometime around the middle of the 19th
century and the close of the Civil War.
Minnesota quickly became one of the cultural
homelands of immigrant Finns in America, and
their legacy lives on today in last
names--Niemi [NEE-me], Lahti [LAH-tee],
Saari [SAR-ee]--town names (Esko, Heinola
[HEY-no-la] and Finland, come to mind) and
even a made-up saint, St. Urho, who, by the
way, boasts his own celebration every March
16. A five-part series
exploring the history of Finnish immigrants
in Northern Minnesota. By producer Britt
Aamodt. |
