Winter Break at the UCSC Tree-sit Dear friends and supporters of the UCSC tree-sit,
December 7 marked the first month of the tree-sit on Science Hill. In that month, we have been able to do a lot: discussions about the LRDP, Biomedicine, the use of police force and the future of our campus have been sprouting up all over the place. Connections have been made with off-campus community members, many forums have been held and more are planned, and a campus coalition of students, graduate students, and faculty has formed to ...

December 14, 1793: Mission Santa Cruz Burns An inspiring story of local resistance to colonialism! Of course, this was just one of the earliest battles in a long and brutal war that is still ongoing today, 314 years later, as luxury condominiums are built in the shadow of the Mission that colonized those lands, the redwood and chaparral forests of "upper campus" are threatened by the University of California, and the City continues to exist, a cancerous entity living off the labor of (wage) slaves and resources extracted from the land....
