Primetime Policy Change

4 for 4 in California.

Victories:

3. 20 year halt of mining at Ash Meadows

4. Reviving the Colorado River

65 episodes on KPFK many focusing on Water in the West, the species, peoples, and agriculture. Journalism is “who, what, where, and why.” We do “why.” 

The “why” in this case is the natural flow and unity of people, water, and all life., ours to live, protect, and cherish.

CreativeFRONTLINE on KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles / 98.7 FM Santa Barbara has played a key role in the battle to protect abundance and biodiversity at locations across the Colorado Basin, producing several shows week after week raising awareness of our natural ecological systems in…

’This is a very powerful trailer. It is speaking out to the collective of the damages humanity has done to our Mother planet.

We as a species cannot live without fresh water as water is life for all people, plants and animals and fish throughout our planet.

The Native people made a promise to the Creator that we were the Guardians of Nature and our planet’

-Linda Wiechman, Lower Elwha Klallam.

Water in the West.

The Last Oasis

These clips together form a profound story of the ways we experience the land and the waters, in the nation's most populous state, and ultimately how we see ourselves. The story begins in remote Beatty, Nevada and continues down the Amargosa, down the Colorado, and beyond to Tucson and San Diego, home to 40 million people.

The script, in development for a high quality documentary film project and educational campaign, resides here.

Produced by Tracker Ginamarie Rangel Quinone (Nde Western Apache), and Robert Lundahl.

Pupfish. Little blue fish endemic to pools upwelling amid the rock strata at Ash Meadows.

Here on Creative FRONTLINE, we’ve done several shows on water in the West. Only not the same water from your tap exactly, but the waters in springs, aquifers, and rivers, and now, Death Valley and it’s mysterious partially underground Amargosa River.

Water moves good things and bad in the desert including radioactive materials from nuclear testing years ago.

We’re on with Amargosa Conservancy’s Mason Voehl, discussing the good, the bad, and the ugly. Pupfish are good.

Education.

If the American left had fully championed school choice decades ago, we may be celebrating what happened in 1972 in Blythe, Calif. as the spark of a movement.

That spring, the Mexican-American community’s frustration with the public school system boiled over, spurring creation of a scrappy “freedom school” that became Escuela de la Raza Unida, which still exists today.

The Battle of Blythe, with UFW Labor Leader, César Chávez (1972). Rare historical footage from the Figueroa Family Collection. Created for Escuela de la Raza Unida 40th Anniversary.

This lost story from a remote desert town is steeped in the progressive politics of another era.

In Chicano Pride. In empowering the “poor.”

Even in Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers.

“We were ahead of the curve,” said Carmela Garnica, who has led the school with her husband, Rigoberto Garnica, since the beginning.

Troubles at giant projects in California desert prompt U.S. to revise plan

With billions of dollars in federal stimulus money in hand, the Obama administration set out five years ago on a grand experiment in the California desert.

The goal: Open public lands to renewable-energy development to wean the nation from fossil fuels.

The results haven't been pretty, a fact the administration has tacitly acknowledged by devising a new plan, expected to be released this month, to find better places to put industrial-scale solar farms in the California desert.

Dam Removal and Ecosystem Restoration

KCET SoCal Focus by Chris Clarke

Lundahl returned to the California desert a few years ago after spending decades traveling, landing in Las Vegas, the Bay Area, and the Pacific Northwest among other places. He spent the 1990s documenting a battle by the Elwha Klallam, a tribe on the Olympic Peninsula, to remove two salmon-killing dams on the Elwha River.

To many people's surprise, that battle was successful. The Elwha Dam was finally demolished last year, and the Glines Canyon Dam demolition should be complete sometime this year.

"Portrays the dignity and wisdom of the Lower Elwha Klallam in the face of almost a century of racism and political ill-will... shows us how the tribe has taken center stage in the efforts to retain what's left of Elwha salmon stocks. When the stocks return, more than the ecology will be restored...the tribe will have salmon to complete the circle of traditional ceremonial ways."

–Adam Burke, High Country News

We are restoring honor.

We are keeping promises.

We are doing the right thing.
