Thankfully, the "Wheel" controversy has come full circle.

The "Wheel" itself — 10 red porcelain trees astrologically placed outside the Denver Art Museum in homage to important American Indian religious sites and ceremonies — makes a statement about breaking the cycle of America's mistreatment of Native peoples.
