Synopsis
In this episode, we continue our coverage of the struggle to Stop Cop City and defend the Weelaunee Forest in Atlanta, Georgia. While Episode 85 offered a history and analysis of the first phases of the movement, today we present a series of anonymous first person narratives from participants who describe their inspiring and transformative experiences in the forest, originally published in August 2022 as “Beneath the Concrete, the Forest.” The episode opens with the text of a solidarity statement we’re encouraging all listeners to sign with groups or as individuals, in response to the police’s murder of forest defender Manuel “Tortuguita” Teran. Around the US and escalating repression of the movement. {January 29, 2023} -------SHOW NOTES------ Table of Contents: Ex-Worker Introduction {0:01} Episode Introduction {0:36} Solidarity with the Movement to Stop Cop City and Defend Weelaunee Forest {1:53} Beneath the Concrete, The Forest: Accounts From the Defense of the Atlanta Forest {6:40} The
