My neighbors chopped down my second-fav neighborhood tree, a 50-ft fiddle fig. I've been crying this morning.pic.twitter.com/s6M6lzUvWd

Chopping down this fig tree comes on the heels of largely denuding that willow tree in the background, which sweeps into my backyard.
Los Angeles is like any other place in that people of color don't get a lot of trees and green space. We get what we plant. That's it.
Felt blessed to live next to a weeping willow and a fiddle fig. A jacarandá and an ombu might be better, sure, but I'll take what's here.
Dang. Requiem for a fiddle fig tree. You were loved... and you will be missed.
