Today we're thinking about Pack Creek Ranch in southern Utah and an incredible archive of material, gathered by river guide and environmental activist Ken Sleight, that was consumed by fire in early June, 2021. The archive held over 50 years of photographs, writings, and correspondence chronicling Ken Sleight's years of guiding on the Colorado River, his fight to stop the damming of Glen Canyon and the filling of Lake Powell in the 1950s and 60s, and his close friendship with Edward Abbey, author of The Monkey Wrench gang. Ken is the inspiration for Abbey's character Seldom Seen Smith. In honor of Ken Sleight and all who are out there working to save our planet we share again “Cry me a River” – the dramatic stories of three pioneering river activists—Ken Sleight, Katie Lee, and Mark Dubois and the damming of wild rivers in the west. Katie Lee, born in 1917, a former Hollywood starlet, ran the Colorado River through Glen Canyon long before it was dammed, and in 1955 was the 175th person to run the Grand Canyon. An outspoken conservationist, singer and writer, she spent her life fighting for rivers. Mark Dubois, co-founder of Friends of the River, Earth Day and International Rivers Network, began as a river guide who opened up rafting trips to disabled people in the 1970s. Dubois protested the damming and flooding of the Stanislaus River by hiding himself in the river canyon and chaining himself to a rock as the water rose in 1979. We thank producer, river activist and “Keeper,” Martha Ham for her inspiration, her work on this story, and for chronicling Ken Sleight's life and world on the river. This piece is part of Stories from the Heart of the Land, a series featuring intimate stories from around the world about the human connection to land and landscape, produced by Atlantic Public media and supported by The Nature Conservancy. Special thanks to Jay Allison and Emily Botein.

Welcome to Yours in Christ, Pastoral Letters from Resurrection in State College, Pennsylvania. I'm Pastor Zach Simmons, and this is letter number 20, “Love One Another Earnestly from a Pure Heart.” For more, visit resurrectionopc.org/letters. Dear Resurrection, Once while I was visiting friends in Modesto, California, they took me to a park on the banks of the Stanislaus River. I have never felt water so cold in all my life. Flowing down from the snowcapped Sierra Nevada mountains just north of Yosemite, the Stanislaus is fed by snowmelt, so even though it was high summertime, the rushing current pierced our feet, ankles, and hands with a profound intensity matched only by the feeling of refreshing purity in those clear mountain waters. That kind of intensity and purity marks the kind of love Jesus calls us to share with one another as we live together in His church. Our last “one-another” passage for this month comes from 1 Peter 1:22, which says, “Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart.” It's easy to “love” each other half-heartedly, giving the leftovers of our time and energy (provided our own needs and desires are taken care of), then feeling self-satisfied as though we've done something heroic. But Paul says we're to love one another earnestly—with a fervent intensity like the chill of that mountain riverwater, a grace-driven overflow of self-giving, self-forgetting, Spirit-empowered, others-oriented energy. It's easy to “love” each other out of self-interest—that is, when we have a reason to expect some return, not really pouring ourselves out for one another but wanting, by the service we give, to gratify ourselves. But Peter says our love for each other is to be sincere(the Greek word is an-hypocriton, or “without hypocrisy”) and pure—not mixed with our own agenda or desire for recognition or reward, but clean and fresh, washed by the purifying grace of the Holy Spirit. Sincerity. Fervency. Purity. That is an uncommon kind of love, and it is uncommonly difficult for sinners like us to show that kind of love to each other. Hypocrisy and sluggishness and selfishness come so naturally to us. Where can we all turn together when we hear Peter's call to this kind of love but to the Lord Jesus? Christ is the only person whose love was perfectly pure, never once mixed with a hint of self-interest; no, He gave Himself wholly and completely, without holding anything back, down to the last drop of blood and ounce of anguish, to rescue you from sin and give you life out of death. In the cross you can see the perfect, infinite earnestness of your Savior, the fervency of His self-giving ardor for your salvation. Grace-Based Action Point In John 7, Jesus says, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water'” (John 7:37-38). If you want to show the earnest, pure love Jesus calls you to, you need to know the earnest, pure love of Jesus for you. “Now,” John goes on, “this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive” (v. 39). As you feel the intensity and purity of Jesus' love wash over you through the Gospel, His Spirit is the one who will empower you to extend that love in pure, fervent, self-giving humility towards one another. Yours in Christ, Pastor Simmons

This is a segment of episode #245 of Last Born In The Wilderness “Prayer For The Earth: Traditional Knowledge & An Indigenous Response w/ Stan Rushworth.” Listen to the full episode: https://bit.ly/LBWrushworth Learn more about Stan Rushworth and Dahr Jamail’s upcoming book ’The Changing Earth: Indigenous Voices from Turtle Island’ and support them through their GoFund Me: https://www.thechangingearth.net / https://www.gofundme.com/f/the-changing-earth This is a segment of my interview with Indigenous elder, author, and teacher Stan Rushworth. We discuss Traditional Ecological Knowledge and his upcoming book project ’The Changing Earth: Indigenous Voices from Turtle Island,’ made in collaboration with journalist and author Dahr Jamail. Stan is featured in Ian MacKenzie's recently released short film ‘Prayer for the Earth: An Indigenous Response to These Times.’ Our planet is undergoing massive ecological, climatological, and cultural shifts, with the consequences of these crises playing out in the near and distant future. In our attempt to reattain a harmonious balance with the life systems of the planet, certain traditions of knowledge and wisdom come to the forefront, namely Indigenous or Traditional Ecological Knowledge. But what is attached to these traditional forms of knowledge is something that is often overlooked, whether on purpose or not: the hundreds of years of genocide that nearly erased Indigenous peoples from Turtle Island. This erasure is just as much physical and is it cultural and spiritual. For those that carry the values and perspectives of the dominant culture, to respectfully and humbly embrace traditional Indigenous knowledge, wisdom, and perspectives requires taking a hard look at the what has brought us collectively to this moment. This includes listening and full acknowledging Indigenous people and their history, including all the pain, sorrow, and beauty that comes with it. Stan Rushworth was born in 1944 and raised on the banks of the Stanislaus River in the East San Joaquin Valley in California by his grandfather, who was of Cherokee descent. He has taught Native American Literature at Cabrillo College, in Aptos, California for the last twenty-eight years, including similar work at the University of California, Santa Cruz as a lecturer, and worked for eighteen years at Cabrillo’s Watsonville Center teaching basic skills and critical thinking surrounding Indigenous peoples’ issues, including six years as Director/Instructor of the Puente Program, centered in the Chicano community. He authored 'Sam Woods: American Healing' (Station Hill Press, New York) in 1992, and 'Going to Water: The Journal of Beginning Rain' (Talking Leaves Press, Freedom, CA) in 2014. As a tenured faculty emeritus, he currently teaches Native American Literature at Cabrillo College, and works as an activist and advocate for Indigenous people as a teacher, writer and speaker. He is an enrolled citizen of the Chiricahua Apache Nation, and is also a member of the Santa Cruz Indian Council, where he is an Advising Cultural Elder. He is currently the Attending Elder (school year 19-20) for the American Indian Resource Center at the University of California, Santa Cruz. He is married, with two sons and one grandson.

In 1979, Mark Dubois chained himself to a boulder to protest filling of the reservoir behind the New Melones Dam that would drown California’s Stanislaus River. In episode 23 of the We Are Rivers podcast, listen to Mark share his story and lessons on saving beloved places. We also hear from Craig Tucker on the Klamath River, which promises to be one of the most significant dam removal and river restoration projects the world has seen.

In March of 2019, 5 year old Matilda tragically drowned in the Stanislaus River at Knight's Ferry, CA. Her mother, Marissa, generously agreed to come on the show to tell her side of the story. This is her story, in her words, completely unfiltered. Everyone here at Broken Girl was amazed by the absolute strength of character and composure that Marissa displayed while telling us her story.

Matilda's Project is a podcast interview with Marissa whose daughter Matilda drowned in the Stanislaus River this past March of 2019. She was kind enough to agree to come on the show and tell her tragic story. This is an introduction to Matilda's Project where we discuss the profound nature of the whole interview experience. Matilda's Project will be coming soon on Unfiltered with BrokenGirl Unchained Podcast Radio.

The story of three pioneering river activists and the damming of wild rivers in the west. Ken Sleight, now in his late 80s, is a long time river and pack guide in southern Utah who fought the damming of Glen Canyon and filling of Lake Powell. The inspiration for Ed Abbey’s character Seldom Seen Smith in his book The Monkey Wrench Gang, Sleight is currently working on the campaign to remove Glen Canyon dam.

On February 5, the House of Representatives passed a bill that takes away California's right to divide its dwindling water supply. The bill forces California to take water away from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay Delta and give it to Agribusiness in the San Joaquin Valley, voiding a bunch of State and environmental laws in the process. Summary of the Bill HR 3964: "Sacramento- San Joaquin Valley Emergency Water Delivery Act" This is the second time the Republican-controlled House of Representatives has passed this bill. A similar bill was passed during the 112th Congress. TITLE I: Eff The Fish [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="360"] Water would be diverted away from this delta and given to Big Agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley[/caption] Section 101: Makes sure that water currently dedicated to fish and wildlife is given Central Valley Project contractors by December 31, 2018. Most Central Valley Project contractors are agricultural in the San Joaquin Valley. Section 102: New terms for water contracts: Eliminates a provision that makes sure the EPA approves new contracts for water delivery. Extends the renewal length of existing contracts from 25 years to 40 years and eliminates requirements for environmental reviews Adds a provision that contracts must only charge water customers for the water actually delivered Section 105: Water usage will be prioritized to go towards agricultural, municipal, and industrial purposes Section 107: Private for-profit organizations would be eligible for water storage and delivery contracts paid for with taxpayer money, which is not currently allowed. If by September 30, 2018, the Central Valley doesn't get an additional 800,000 acre-feet of water, all non-mandatory water uses will be cut off until the Central Valley gets their water. Section 108: Rules will revert back to the law as of 1994. [caption id="" align="alignright" width="314"] The delta smelt, the "stupid little fish" the House GOP is pretending is the only species affected by drying up the delta[/caption] Operations of this new water plan "shall proceed without regard to the Endangered Species Act" Prohibits the Federal government and any agency of the State of California from enforcing a State law that restricts water usage for the Central Valley Project or State Water Project (which gives water to Southern California) to protect any species affected by this new water diversion. Prohibits the State of California from enforcing any of their laws that restricts Central Valley "water rights" "under the Public Trust Doctrine. No costs associated with diverting water to Central Valley contractors will be paid by Central Valley contractors "California law is preempted" from restricting the size of a fish allowed to be taken out of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers or the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers Delta. Section 111: Federal agencies can not be forced to change their actions by a National Environmental Protection Act determination. *New to the 113th Congress version* Section 112 & 113: Gives 10 year water contracts to the Oakdale, South San Joaquin, and Calaveras County water districts if it doesn't take water away from the Central Valley *New to the 113th Congress version* Section 114: A pilot program to remove "non-native" bass species from the Stanislaus River. The districts will pay 100% of the costs The government "shall issue" permits for the program under the Endangered Species Act within 180 days; if it's not done in 180 days, the permits "shall be deemed approved" Permitting can be outsourced to "any qualified private contractor' National Environmental Protection Act "shall not apply" to permitting for the program. "Any restriction imposed under California law" on catching fish in the Stanislaus River "is herby void and is preempted" Pilot fish-murdering program will sunset in seven years. TITLE II: Overturns a Court Settlement The Settlement ruled in 2004 that the Bureau of Reclamation illegally dried the San Joaquin River and ruled that they will have to release water from the Friant Dam for the first time in 55 years in order to allow the fish - specifically salmon- in the river to survive. The lawsuit was first filed in 1998 and was one of California's longest running water disputes. It also restores water supplies to farmers near Stockton Section 201: Repeals the settlement and enacts a whole new plan. The new plan "preempts and supersedes any State law" that imposes stricter requirements. Central Valley water contractors are allowed to sue the Federal government if it fails to enact the new plan. Section 211: Repeals a requirement that salmon be reintroduced to the San Joaquin River TITLE III: Payments to Central Valley water contractors Section 301: Federal government has to reimburse water contractors for construction costs already accrued by January 31, 2018; future costs need to be reimbursed by the government within five years. Power revenues can't be used towards construction cost reimbursement TITLE IV: Water Allocations Section 403: Agricultural water contractors in the Central Valley will get 100% of their promised water in Wet - Below Normal years, 75% in a "dry" year, and "50% in a "Critically dry" year Section 404: The Federal government must make sure that the Endangered Species Act and goals of "addressing environmental needs" do not cause any "adverse water supply or fiscal impacts" to Central Valley water contractors. TITLE V: Precedent Section 501: The coordination of water rights "require assertion of Federal supremacy to protect existing water rights", says "these circumstances are unique to California", and therefore "nothing in this Act shall serve as precedent in any other State." Section 502: "Nothing in this Act shall affect in any way the Proclamation of State of Emergency and associated Executive Order issued by Gov. Edmund G. Brown, Jr. on January 17, 2014."
