Protest Against Data Center Plans in Indianapolis
Dozens of people protested against a proposed data center in the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood of Indianapolis.
The protest was organized in response to a project proposed by Metrobloks, which aims to construct a data center at the site of the former Sherman Drive-In theater.
“Y’all could’ve built a plaza, y’all could have built a Kroger, y’all could have built a better food market for us, a better plaza, anything. Why build a building that’s gonna kill a lot of us, in the long run.”
— Terry Triplett, neighbor
“You know, we can’t have politicians making decisions for us on our behalf.”
— James Wilson, neighbor
