Frog, Sassafras, et al., eds., Earth First! Journal 21, no. 1 (1 November 2000). Republished by the Environment & Society Portal, Multimedia Library. http://www.environmentandsociety.org/node/7057.
In this special issue, Earth First! Journal celebrates 20 years in print. In addition, Rod Coronado tells the story of an eco-saboteur, Karen Pickett discusses cowboys and women, and Dave Foreman attempts to define monkeywrenching.
"Radical Environmentalism. Deep Ecology. Ecocentrism. Biodiversity. Ecofeminism. Bioregionalism. Ecotage. When I first went to the woods to meet Earth First! activists more than a decade ago, I knew little about such things. What I did know was that there was a group of rowdy activists risking arrest and repression in defense of nature. I knew also about the escalating rate of environmental deterioration—so something in the emerging portrait struck an internal chord."
