Discussion of gathering at Portland State University, April 20, 2014
Guests Judy Goldhaft and Emmalyn Garrett (aka Lumen) are on hand to talk about thefFirst annual Cascadia Rising: A Bioregional Confluence - "A gathering dedicated to promoting bioregional awareness, Indigenous solidarity, alternative and horizontal governance tools, and community resilience in the Pacific Northwest." The event was held at Portland State University on April 20, 2014.
Goldhaft is a dancer and long-time bioregional visionary. She was a member of both the San Francisco Mime Troupe and the Diggers, two groups which played significant roles in the flowering of the.counterculture in the Bay Area and beyond in the mid-to-late 1960's. She was also involved in the early bioregional movement and with long-time partner Peter Berg (who died in 2011) co-founded the Planet Drum Foundation, which has served as a center for bioregional awareness and education since 1973. http://www.planetdrum.org/
Emmalyn is from southern Cascadia and is a co-organizer of the Confluence, and has been involved with Cascadia Now! and environmental activism in the region. http://cascadianow.org/
Most of the panels from the Confluence are available in the KBOO archives. See http://cascadiaconfluence.org/ for a complete schedule.
Also, this is audio from the "Cascadia Against Empire: Bioregional Organizing from a Decolonizing Perspective" panel at this year's Public Interest Environmental Law Conference:
