Esperanza Blockade: In 1999, we created a six-month blockade to defend a community garden in the East Village. Homesteaders, anarcho-punks, environmentalists, students and others tended a bonfire and erected an aerial fort in the shape of el coqui, a frog that in scares away invaders in Puerto Rican legends. Defying court orders, Mayor Giuliani sent hundreds of police officers to remove us, along with a bulldozer to raze the garden. As a result, the judge in the case, along with the state attorney general, Elliot Spitzer, were so enraged that they put a temporary moratorium on the destruction of all community gardens in New York.
