Hannah Kass was just indicted on bogus arson and criminal damage to property charges after the GA attorney general likely realized that the stop cop city RICO case is unwinnable. Any donations and/or shares would be deeply appreciated 💙

The Forest in the City

https://crimethinc.com/ForestintheCity

The fight to defend the Weelaunee Forest in Atlanta has become one of the most vibrant movements of the post-Trump era, interweaving environmentalism, abolitionism, and the struggle against gentrification. Yet as police begin employing lethal violence and indiscriminate terrorism charges, it has reached a critical juncture.

In this comprehensive history of the past year of struggle, participants reflect on the practices that have given the movement strength and analyze the challenges that face it.

This is a follow-up to last year's article, "The City in the Forest," which traced the first phase of the movement.

So there's an Instagram account called Stop the Spray that dedicates itself to putting out info about the use of glyphosate (aka Round-up) as a widespread pesticide, which foresting companies spray in the rare temperate rainforests of BC to kill any plants they deem 'unprofitable', destroying the biodiversity and ecosystem as well as literally poisoning the people, animals and plants (as round-up is considered a carcinogen).

There's currently a petition to the parliament to consider banning the use of round-up. It has until January 13th to get signed, so if you're canadian, please consider signing and sharing! If not, please reblog this post so others can learn + see + sign!

Sign the petition to end Glyphosate Use in 'Canada'

Capitol Forest, WA: Many, Many Trees Spiked in Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en Day of Action

Over the last several weeks we have spiked large swaths of trees in the so-called “Capitol State Forest” in rural so-called “Thurston County, Washington” (ancestral Nisqually, Squaxin, and Chehalis land), leading up to the November 5th day of action in solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en struggle against Coastal Gas Link and the Canadian government’s colonial intrusion into their territory.

This seasonal transition has been sharp and hard on the land. Our forests here experienced an unusually sudden shift from severe heatwaves and drought that lasted late into the fall, to floods and freezes with minimal autumnal gentle rains to steward the earth into the rainy season. These forests which have fed so many for time immemorial show the consequences. As climate change-fueled “natural” disasters become more and more devastating every year, the industrial rate of destruction of everything that sustains the land and the people on it only escalates. Politicians speak out of one side of their mouths about “truth and reconciliation” or “climate action,” while with the other side of their mouths they send the police to clear the way for mining and logging companies. Swaths of land dripping in moss and bubbling with streams, teeming with mushrooms and other life will soon be left as dry mangled fields, mirrors of the hellscapes being created in unceded Wet’suwet’en territory. Lifeless, and robbed of all sustenance and culture, useless to anyone but the corporations and people who sold off a forest they had no connection to.

All of these industries are on the side of Coastal Gas Link and they are all our enemies. We feel the rage, creativity, and determination of the people of Wet’suwet’en and Wedzin Kwa, and must all act against every aspect of colonial industry which threatens the sovereignty and lifeblood of lands and waters. We hope this message serves as a warning to deter all upcoming timber sales in the Capitol Forest. If the trees are cut, we hope for maximum damage to the chainsaws and mills.

Up in Wet’suwet’en territory, CGL just blew up Lamprey Creek, an active salmon and eel spawning ground, and home to two elders’ cabins on the Wedzin Kwah river. These waters and forests are lifeblood being stolen and desecrated. Drilling under the crystal clear Wedzin Kwah is active, while salmon actively spawn nearby. Wet’suwet’en protectors have specifically called on anarchists to step up. This comes with huge risk for the Wet’suwet’en. Let that call be heard and felt by our friends and our enemies.

DECOLONIZE THE PLANET GO LOG IN HELL WORLDWIDE SOLIDARITY WITH WET’SUWET’EN CGL FUCK OFF ALSO STOP COP CITY – DEFEND THE ATLANTA FOREST SHUTDOWNEVERYTHING

On 6/12 we smashed every window and door of the Atlas construction office in Kansas City area in solidarity with the Atlanta forest defense. We will continue this path of destruction until cop city is stopped and the forest can exist in peace. Atlas be warned, much more is coming.

Sending love to the forest, -some anarchists-
