This was recorded on a windy evening just before sunset at Mattole Beach on the Lost Coast in Humboldt County, California. The surf was rough due to the strong wind which produced a wind swell and created choppy seas speckled with white caps beyond the surf line. This is another recording I made during my one night stay at the Mattole Campground on the Lost Coast. The Lost Coast is the longest stretch of undeveloped coastline in California, or any of the lower 48 states. The Mattole Campground sits at the northern trailhead of the Lost Coast Trail, which I very much hope to hike someday, and make recordings along the way. This episode is dedicated to my very good friend Orion Gardner, who tragically passed away recently. He was a lifelong surfer and lover of the ocean, and I know he would have absolutely loved this stunning stretch of coastline. He was also one of the earliest supporters of the podcast, whose kind words helped motivate me to continue making these recordings and continue sharing them with you. He was one of my oldest and dearest friends, and he will be forever missed.

This was recorded on a windy morning beside the Mattole River Estuary at Mattole Beach, Humboldt County, California. The roaring surf is heard in the background as small wind waves lap at the shore of the estuary. I was fortunate to make a quick trip out to the Lost Coast and camped for one night at Mattole Campground on Mattole Beach near the mouth of the Mattole River. It was very windy for the short time I was there, but nevertheless I was lucky to make a few recordings. This recording was made with the help of a driftwood hut someone had built on the beach beside the estuary, which provided good shelter from the strong, gusty wind.

October 13, 2021 — PG&E crews have moved decisively into the Humboldt Redwoods State Park. On Friday afternoon, chainsaws roared along Mattole Road, as forest defenders prepared a tree sit to protect old growth habitat trees. “These are our last big Douglas fir trees on the coast of Northern California,” said Gabrielle, a landowner who lives near the park and has worked in conservation for years. “Some of these have been saved, which raises the question: is anything ever really saved?” One of the activists, who goes by the name Farmer, outlined the situation. “Because so much environmental destruction is happening right now, we have to do a kind of triage,” he explained. “People sit in trees, people blockade roads with their bodies, people build structures to ascend in the middle of the road and they can't be taken down easily. People do all kinds of stuff to stop logging out here...we're almost always prepared to do it.” Forest defenders also monitor logging plans, but, he added, “In this case, in the PG&E situation, there are no plans to look at. There's no reports to read. You can't look at maps that tell you where the trees are going to be cut down. So it's all completely opaque and all we know is what we see on the trees. All we know is the mark. And the mark, as you know, is unreliable.” One of the marked trees is a huge charismatic Douglas fir called Dotty, because of the spray painted dots on its trunk. Dotty towers over a grove of smaller trees, all of them also marked. Gabrielle described the tree and its surroundings. “It's incredibly large, especially in comparison to what we have left,” she said. “In our watershed, which adjoins at the top of this hill in the Mattole watershed, we have about eight percent of our original forest left, probably less, so every tree like that is really significant and important.” She paused as a tree hit the ground, just out of sight down the hill. “As you can hear, it's really large trees that they're falling,” she remarked. “And it's really sad because they're storing incredible amounts of carbon and it's counterproductive to be removing them at this time...where is the protection, and where are the people who are getting paid to protect them, and why is there no environmental impact report?” She added that the tree removal in the park “is already on land that people worked hard to save and did a lot of fundraising for, and contributions came from all over the country, all over the world, and people believe that this area was saved, and fragmenting it and destroying the canopy connectivity is really not okay.” Mander is one of the tree sitters prepared to take up residence in a tree that's already a home to many. Their first night in the tree, they spotted voles and flying squirrels, important food sources for iconic birds of prey that also nest in the forest. Old growth trees that appear to be damaged have been marked for removal, but Mander pointed out that what look like flaws are ideal nesting sites for wildlife. “From where I am, I can see very complex crowns, old broken tops, really key habitat features,” they noted. “There's a lot of moss and lichen, some are starting to accumulate canopy soil...in other areas of the state, they're undergrounding a lot of the power lines, and I think it would be absolutely reasonable to ask them to do that, in protected old growth groves, in a state park.” So far, the tree sit has not been revealed to crews on the ground, but, Mander added, “That is what I and others are prepared to do, if they go after those trees.”

When fighting for human rights is a crime, we should all become outlaws. Sixteen activists fighting the overt rise of fascism find themselves in the crosshairs of our “justice system.” We take a look at the detention of migrant children, the celebration of white supremacist imperialism and how folks are standing up for justice. Next up, there is precious little ancient forest left in this world – and a patch in Northern California is quite literally on the chop block. We sit down with a forest protector for a look into the grotesque world of logging and destroying in the Mattole watershed.   https://bit.ly/borderland16 https://www.facebook.com/savethemattoleforest/

For twenty years forest defenders have used direct action to prevent logging in the Mattole forest in northern California. In July of 2018, the most recent blockade was dismantled by HRC security. In this episode of Radical People, Eamon talks to Slingshot to get the inside scoop on just what went down.

This week we are talking a little break to work on other things, and so have taken the time to re-broadcast two interviews from two other radical and anarchist audio projects, both of which have been doing amazing work. From Embers The first we'll present is from an anarchist radio show in so-called Kingston, Ontario called From Embers. This interview was originally released by them in the middle of June, and is with Kanahus Manuel, who is a Secwepemc woman fighting against the Trans Mountain Pipeline on her land in a variety of ways. This situation of extraction, forced displacement, and ongoing subjugation on Secwepemc land is one which has many aspects to it all of which Manuel talks about in this interview. Kanahus Manuel was arrested recently, a few days after the tattoo gathering that she mentions around half way through the interview. If you would like to read more on this issue though, we will be posting a bunch of articles in the show notes for this episode, which you can access through our noblogs website or via your podcasting app. These links will include both how to support Manuel post arrest, the explicit call for solidarity from the Secwepemc Women Warriors Society, and also the original links that From Embers included in their blog post. To hear more from From Embers, hit them up at http://fromembers.libsyn.com/website/ A quick update, From Embers has JUST joined the Channel Zero Network! Woot! Radical People podcast The second interview is from the podcast Radical People, which recently became a member of the Channel Zero Network and is hosted by Eamon Farrelly. In this interview, Eamon speaks with Sweet Pea about the 20 year strong Mattole Forest Blockades in Humblodt County California. In this interview the guest speaks about their experiences participating in this forest blockade, and I thought it was an extraordinary interview because so often we get a picture of direct action which is very action oriented but this presents an experience which is profoundly emotional, or spiritual. Anyway, I liked it a lot and found it very inspirational, hope you will too. To hear more from Radical People, hit them up on Soundcloud, also via any podcasting app. We had to cut some out of this interview, and you can hear the full version on their platform. They also have a patreon if you have any loose change kickin around, and are on Twitter @Radical_Podcast. To get in touch with the Mattole Forest Blockade, you can email mattoleactioncamp@riseup.net and on FaceBook you can search Save the Mattole's Ancient Forest for news and updates via that medium.

For twenty years, people have engaged in direct action in order to protect the Mattole forest in northern California from being logged. In this episode of Radical People, Eamon talks with Sweet Pea who has spent a significant amount of time as part of the fight to defend the Mattole. This is a link to the campaign's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Save-the-Mattoles-Ancient-Forest-572103586221093/ This is an article from the Earth First! journal about a blockade in the Mattole from 2017: https://earthfirstjournal.org/newswire/2017/06/06/blockade-in-the-matole-forest/ This is an article from the Earth First! journal about the current blockade in the Mattole: https://earthfirstjournal.org/newswire/2018/06/24/new-blockade-in-californias-mattole-forest-protects-old-growth-from-timber-harvest-plans/

The Mattole Forest is the largest remaining unprotected, old growth Douglas Fir forest in California. By unprotected, I mean by The State, because it has been protected by dedicated and unwavering forest defenders who've held it down since 1998! They've vigilantly built blockades, put their lives on the line and vigilantly halted any underhanded attempts by Forest Service and the Humboldt Redwood Company to log our glorious wild lands. Hear activist Pluto, tell harrowing stories of defenders in tripods being attacked by logging company goons and coming out victorious! Marvel at close-up encounters with mountain lions! And you can do it, too! Tune in!
