WAKE THE FUCK UP North Coast EARTH FIRST

by LIBERATION?
While the Maxxam campaign in Texas is rockin, within Humbolt EF, WE ARE IN desperate need of anti-oppresion help, and for people to speak up. We do not have to resort to blaming and name calling.
Three chears to the tree sitters, Huston TX activists, the court cases against Pacific Lumber, and the FBI, WE ARE WINNING, WE Are winning, but why the fuck are people claiming to be EF pocketing all the money you send to North Coast EF and to the North Coast EF paper and even gear sent specifically for tree sitters is being packed away into individual stashes to be divided up the way individual white men feel like it. Yes, women here involved in EF here are have been dropping out like flies because they are sick and tired of being treated like a new piece of meat. There are no open meetings, if you want to help you do as they say or you are rejected by the vangaurd of EF. Who would of ever thought there could be created an athoritarian leadership of a few white men and yet lacking any order EF in Humbolt. SO Humbolt rejects them completely.

Sorry for the bad news, tree sitters in HUmbolt and activists in HUmbolt are fucking amazing, they are still resisting, but many under a different name such as the Mattole Forest Defenders who wish to operate without patriarchy. It is not easy, represion is at times extreme by violent loggers. Until EF in HUmbolt can operate within the guidlines of anti-oppresion and original EF intentions, ask that the money be consensed upon in open meetings, but there are still people you can trust to give money to because, there are still tree sitters needing help.

The saddest thing about this is that there is no active campaign here against Maxxam, because the community is not a welcome part if EF. I am deeply sorry for this as I am also a part of this movement, I am also a white male working with my own patriarchy, I cannot expres my feelings in my own community, in my own movement and have to share it here, and we canont organize here unless this bullshit ends NOW.

To be effective, here in HUmbolt, we must empower people to take action, not the other way around, if you wish to form an stalinist movement, get the fuck out of Humbolt, you are not our Vanguard, and the Cirle of Life Foundation is only a collection agency for foundation money, since Julia cought stardom, she has completely ignored the forest movement she has so inspired here.

EF ALWAYS, fuck the stalinists, you are not my vanguard.

by is this real or slander
circle of life HAS been supporting treesits in freshwater, Julia Butterfly was recently arrested there, as well as in Ecuador last year protesting Texaco destroying the rainforest. By ignorantly slandering her you expose yourself as just another mediocre activist enviously attacking those with a better reputation than yourself. You vaguely accuse other men of sexist oppression, and end your argument by citing the most respected woman in the movement as the only specific example of who is supposedly causing your bitterness. I agree that you are "still working on your own patriarchy. Anyways, thanks for slandering the movement again, whoever the fuck you are.
