...'Today, decades of #disinvestment have left #freetowns #vulnerable to #predatory #development, #land #theft and #industrialization. The Banners hoped to reverse those trends. Yet within weeks of creating their organization, their #purpose shifted dramatically. Instead of supporting other #Black #communities, the twins found themselves fighting for their own #hometown’s #survival. Wallace, population 1,240, was facing an #existential #threat in the form of the #proposed #construction of a gargantuan #grain-export #terminal, the latest in an onslaught of industrial #growth along the lower #Mississippi #River. The terminal would “drain us of all of our #resources and all of our #qualityoflife”, Joy said. “The overall goal is to run all of us out.” Across the #South, freetowns – also called Black-founded towns or #freedom #colonies – are fighting similar kinds of #encroachment. Helmed by Black men and women looking to escape #slavery and white #supremacy, freetowns #functioned as #autonomous communities, #producing their own #food and #governance and even providing relative #safety during the Jim Crow era. Now, many are in the #untenable position of having to #advocate for their right to have a #future. Often, this means #uncovering #lost #histories and #genealogies, seeking #protection through #historic #registries and battling #local #governments, #developers and #corporations in #court. For advocates like the Banners, the effort to maintain a stable status quo can be exhausting.'... https://lnkd.in/g3Bg7v_b

Rural Life, Earthy Values At San Benito Agricultural Land Trust (SBALT), we were heartened to see this opinion column on 4H Clubs and the earthy, agri-based life portrayed in this column in 'The Washington Post'... https://lnkd.in/eST6tCug #sbalt #SBALT #california #sanbenitocounty #rural #urban #4H #WaPo #washingtonpost #ohio Quote from the column: These [4H] clubs go beyond raising animals and tending gardens and strive to foster equality, inclusion and leadership. After all, we learn that the four Hs stand for a head for clearer thinking, a heart for greater loyalty, hands for larger service and health for the greater living for club, community, country and world. I don’t relish imagining the end of modern civilization. But should it come, former 4-H’ers are the kind of community I want around me. ****** About SBALT: San Benito County in California, despite the rapid housing growth in Hollister, is still at heart a rural county: farms, orchards, rangelands with animals, vineyards, and more. SBALT is dedicating to preserving these agricultural and open spaces for posterity. Consider getting involved and supporting SBALT.

🐷🐴🐔🐮🐰🐶🦆🐑🦔 Comrades, In the spirit of Old Major's wisdom, let us take a moment to reflect on the true essence of our endeavors. It is not in the pursuit of profits, but in the pursuit of collective prosperity and shared well-being, that we find our purpose. Let us remember that a society's worth is not measured by its financial gains, but by the fairness, equality, and compassion it extends to every member. Together, we can build a world where the needs of the many outweigh the wants of the few. Let our actions echo the principles of Animalism, reminding us that it is not about the accumulation of wealth, but the abundance of empathy and solidarity. Together, we can create a legacy of harmony and equity for generations to come. #Animalism #CollectiveProsperity #EqualityForAll 🌍🐾

We view the beech tree as an ideal representation of generational wealth. The person who plants the seed understands that they may not see its maturation. Despite this awareness, they proceed with planting the seedling to help ensure that future generations thrive beneath its sheltering canopy.

Sign the letter: Urge President Biden to Issue an Executive Order Stopping the Unlimited Killing of Wolves on Our Federal Public Lands https://shorturl.at/dpHWY The horrific destruction and abuse of wolves under state management is widespread and ongoing. The only way to stop this cruelty is to restore federal protection for wolves. Clearly, the states are unwilling to “responsibly” protect wolves and we cannot allow them to continue devastating these populations. On May 24, 2021, on a Brave Wilderness broadcast with Coyote Peterson, President Biden reported his grandkids were telling him “Pop, Pop, they’re killing all the wolves, Pop!” He pledged his support then to stop the destruction of wolves and it is time to hold him to this commitment. By executive order, he can enact federal protection for wolves today. “I’m in with you,” he pledged. We have waited long enough. Wolves cannot survive in this atmosphere of hate and limitless killing. We must act for Mercy’s sake and the hundreds of wolves and their pups facing death each day in the Northern Rockies.

Howdy all! I'm very excited share that I've taken on the role of Executive Director of WildEarth Gaurdians! Thrilled to be joining this community of hard-charging and passionate advocates for people and the planet. I believe that Guardians stands as a beacon of hope and action in the realm of conservation. Guardians is unapologetic and uncompromising in its defense of the West’s majestic landscapes, magnificent wildlife, fragile climate, and dynamic river systems. For many years I have admired its bold systems-change approach to championing innovative environmental policies driven by grassroots engagement, and cutting-edge use of legal tools to hold decision-makers accountable. Guardians does what others say “can’t” be done, and that’s the same cloth from which I’m cut—challenging the status quo, strategically going after what the planet and people really need, and steering clear of false solutions. In other words, Guardians like to kick ass and so do I!
