Cornell on Fire Weekly 5/15
In the entire history of the world, the Redbud trees were never so beautiful as they were this year. They arrayed themselves in splendor, even around the parking lot that Cornell bulldozed through our community nineteen years ago, in what was once called Redbud Woods. We hope the current cohort of Cornell administrators parked there last week, and saw the Redbuds, and that their hearts were broken open.

On April 22nd, we moved to Reclaim Earth Day from media greenwashing, corporate propaganda, and obfuscation by the political shills of the reigning socioeconomic world order. On this May Day, we must move onward to secure the earth itself and all its inhabitants, human and others, from those who are burning and inundating and poisoning and stripping it of life for the sake of personal profit, and from the political-economic system that enables and protects them.

The earth is not a resource to be exploited, but a relation to be honored and tended.
