Radical People: Twenty Years of Timber Wars

In this new podcast episode of Radical People, the hosts talk with those fighting to defend the Mattole forest in Humboldt County, located in Northern California.

For twenty years direct action has been the tactic of choice for small bands of forest defenders in Humboldt County’s Mattole forest. In this episode of Radical People, High Wire gives a glimpse into what life is like on the ground for those who fight the timber company HRC, and what has gone down in the forest away from the eyes of the public as rag tag activists did whatever it took to keep the old growth standing.
