I just read through the Salem–News piece. Imagining the future, and how we can do that during a period of climate crisis (and trauma) is central to just about everything. I think “Who Are My People?” has lot to say about the kind of future we create, according to the values we follow, while building for sustainability. I’m excited to bring it to Hunter for Earth Week and for all the conversations it’ll generate.

Southern California Stories

If the American left had fully championed school choice decades ago, we may be celebrating what happened in 1972 in Blythe, Calif. as the spark of a movement.

That spring, the Mexican-American community’s frustration with the public school system boiled over, spurring creation of a scrappy “freedom school” that became Escuela de la Raza Unida, which still exists today.

 
 
 

Sr. Alfredo Figueroa, Chemehuevi | Yaqui

 

The Battle of Blythe, with UFW Labor Leader, César Chávez (1972). Rare historical footage from the Figueroa Family Collection. Created for Escuela de la Raza Unida 40th Anniversary.

This lost story from a remote desert town is steeped in the progressive politics of another era.

In Chicano Pride. In empowering the “poor.”

Even in Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers.

“We were ahead of the curve,” said Carmela Garnica, who has led the school with her husband, Rigoberto Garnica, since the beginning.

“Troubles at giant projects in California desert prompt U.S. to revise plan”

Troubles at giant projects in California desert prompt U.S. to revise plan

With billions of dollars in federal stimulus money in hand, the Obama administration set out five years ago on a grand experiment in the California desert.

The goal: Open public lands to renewable-energy development to wean the nation from fossil fuels.

The results haven't been pretty, a fact the administration has tacitly acknowledged by devising a new plan, expected to be released this month, to find better places to put industrial-scale solar farms in the California desert.

Robert Lundahl at Whiskey Bend on the Elwha River

KCET SoCal Focus by Chris Clarke

Lundahl returned to the California desert a few years ago after spending decades traveling, landing in Las Vegas, the Bay Area, and the Pacific Northwest among other places. He spent the 1990s documenting a battle by the Elwha Klallam, a tribe on the Olympic Peninsula, to remove two salmon-killing dams on the Elwha River.

To many people's surprise, that battle was successful. The Elwha Dam was finally demolished last year, and the Glines Canyon Dam demolition should be complete sometime this year.

 
 
 

We are restoring honor. We are keeping promises. We are doing the right thing.

"Portrays the dignity and wisdom of the Lower Elwha Klallam in the face of almost a century of racism and political ill-will... shows us how the tribe has taken center stage in the efforts to retain what's left of Elwha salmon stocks. When the stocks return, more than the ecology will be restored...the tribe will have salmon to complete the circle of traditional ceremonial ways."

The life of the planet restored.

Right now, when it’s just us and a river waiting for the dams to come down, it may be difficult to conceive of the inspirational power of what you have done. But when the salmon return, when the dippers and the herons and beavers and the bears crowd the banks, when the life of the ocean and the mountains are joined again, when justice is done for native people, you will have here something that moves lives and inspires people thousands of miles and continents away from here.

This will be the place where our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren can see the life of the planet restored. They will see the tangible power and great beauty of what you have achieved.

We are restoring honor. We are keeping promises. We are doing the right thing.

Your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren—they will be proud of you.

It will be the great gift of the Elwha—Hope.

-Senator Bill Bradley
