A bit of history:
Northern California Earth First! activists Judi Bari & Darryl Cherney were subjects of a bomb attack by an unknown assailant in Oakland on May 24, 1990 while organizing for Redwood Summer. They were charged with bombing themselves by the FBI & OPD. Earth First! was smeared, & a real investigation was never done.
Judi & Darryl sued the FBI & OPD for civil rights violations, winning the case in 2002. Judi Bari died in 1997. Activists continue to investigate the bombing. Judi famously said, “The FBI should find the bomber…& fire him!”
We will never forget.
We will never give up.
We will never compromise in defense of Mother Earth.
