Dawn, Kimberly, ed., Earth First! Journal 16, no. 2 (22 December 1995). Republished by the Environment & Society Portal, Multimedia Library. http://www.environmentandsociety.org/node/7014.
In this issue of Earth First! Journal Leslie Hemstreet tries to determine why the Earth First! movement has received such a bad reputation, Craig Beneville discusses free trade and dolphins, and Boris Garoasat contributes his reflections on the Anti-Terrorism Bill.
"If my grandmother only knew that the US government considered me a terrorist, she would at least get her mind off her fears that I’ve been kidnapped by a cult. […] Here at the office we have recently heard reliable whispers that Earth First! is going to be the subject of a congressional investigation about domestic terrorism sometime this spring. I can think of wiser uses for my time in spring. […] Instead, I will probably be spending all my spare time trying to convince hostile powers that I have always been dedicated to practicing nonviolence."
