POSH ALLS LOG GIIG on

By: Milkman and Dr. Dirty

Our forests evolved with active
fire management by Indigenous
peoples over thousands of
years. However, over the past
200 years, the US government
has managed these forests to
suppress fire and maximize
timber harvests, leaving our
forests unhealthy. We need
intentional fire to regain forest
health so that they can become
resilient to climate change and
end the systematic colonial
violence against Indigenous
people and First Nation's foods.

The shift from holistic
forest management to for profit management of our
forests has resulted in the transformation of once
diverse ecosystems into overly dense monoculture
timber plantations. The conversion of forests to
monocultures and fire suppression has generated
excessive forest fuels that are waiting to be burned
due to increased drought from anthropogenic
climate change. These devastating wildfires will

continue to occur unless we allow
land management to be guided

by Indigenous peoples and their
practices. If we continue to log the
forests after fires, there will be no
forests to manage this way in the

/ future.

There are two types of post fire
logging that are currently occurring
on public lands, hazard tree removal
along roads and “salvage” logging
projects. Hazard tree removal projects
are 100-200 foot wide clear-cuts
along side roads and do not adhere

to environmental regulations like
slope restrictions, buffers for drinking
water, and protecting critical wildlife
habitat. “Salvage” (post fire) logging
projects are timber harvests after a wildfire to profit
off the burned trees, which are indisputably worth
more standing. The lack of regulation around burned
forests enables the state and federal government

to log old growth forests, which would have been
protected otherwise. These types of post fire logging
are the most destructive things that can be done to
our landscapes.

In Oregon, tens of thousands of acres of
proposed hazard tree removal is underway without
public comment, in addition to the thousands of
acres of “salvage” logging proposals happening on
public land managed by the state, forest service, and
BLM. This may be the largest timber grab we have
ever seen in decades. Pacific Northwest forests are
crisscrossed with logging roads that could circle the
planet 13 times. If we allow management agencies
to perpetuate colonial violence towards the land
through “hazard tree removal” management, with
no public process or any process whatsoever for
choosing what “hazard” trees to cut down, these
amazing forests will never be the same. The negative

impacts this kind of management has on the land,
streams, wildlife, and drinking water are ones that
cannot be ignored. The increased risk of landslides,
wildfire, sedimentation into streams and rivers, and
the further fractionation of our forests will have an

eT

As of April 9, 2021, 23,525 trees have been removed
from the Riverside, Archie Creek, Beachie Creek,
Holiday Farm fires which represent 98% of the total
planned hazard tree removal in Oregon. (Top Pie

overwhelmingly negative impact to the
region for future generations.

But what if there was another
option? What if instead of prioritizing
hazard tree removal on roads to
nowhere (public subsidy to the
timber industry and their Wall Street
investors), we prioritized public health,
climate change, drinking water, wildlife,
forest health, and water-bodies. What
would that look like to you? We all have
a role in how we respond to crises like
this, and when the state/corporations
are taking advantage of us all and the
land, its important for us to stand
together and fight for what’s right.

Two Activists Arrested At Sunrise Movement Direct Action

Eugene OR - On March 19th two organizers with Sunrise
Eugene, a local hub of the national climate justice non
profit Sunrise Movement,put their bodies on the line to
stop operations at NW Natural by blocking the gate at

their office in Eugene. The action occurred at the end of a
critical mass bike ride that launched from Skinner's Butte
Park and that was organized by a coalition of participating
groups including Breach Collective, Earth Guardians 350,
and Cascadia Wildlands. The protest and action was part of
a larger effort under the auspice of the Fossil Free Eugene
campaign to move the city away from climate-polluting
fossil fuels and to renewable energy. Activists have been
regularly protesting and testify against the NW Natural
Franchise agreement which is set to expire in May. The city
of Eugene has been in a prolonged dispute with the gas
utility for over a year and a half over the future of using
“natural” fracked gas to heat homes, schools, and businesses

a =

in the city.

Activists hope to put forward Eugene as a national model
for a just transition to renewable energy. The protest
coincided with the national day of climate action and such
continued direct actions are considered a necessity by many
organizers as the effects of climate change continue to
unfold. Many locals consider the effects of climate change
very close to home and point to the 2020 fire season in
Lane county as evidence of its dramatic effects. Others

put forward the increasing social and racial injustice that
climate change continues to expose and intensify.

“Until we recognize that the wellbeing of BIPOC
communities and overall public health are inextricably
linked, we will constantly be succumbing to corporate
industries who value profit over people. NW Natural is no
exception to this, and we must stop the expansion and use

of fracked gas now,’ said Avery Temple, Climate Justice

' Fellow with Breach Collective.
*. Local climate activists protested the arrests of the two
* “ye ca . : ‘
ee activists who wish to remain nameless in front of the

Lane County Jail until their release at 11pm Friday May
19th.

|||) The Fossil Free Eugene campaign continues to ramp

up pressure through the month of April. Organizers

against renewing NW Natural’s franchise agreement at
City Council meetings every other Monday at 7:15pm

PANDEMIC

ON TOP OF

—e PANDEMIC

Ask any person living in Eugene what the city’s most dire issue is and chances are they will respond with homelessness.
It has been well established that Eugene has the highest rates of homelessness per capita than any other city in the United
States, and the City of Eugene has done little to ameliorate this.

We spoke to a representative from Black Thistle Street Aid and Occupy Medical, who provide medical aid and
other services to Eugene's unhoused communities. Before the COVID-19 pandemic paralyzed the nation, Occupy
Medical functioned to host pop-up clinics in the city that would provide free healthcare for homeless individuals. Once
the pandemic struck, their services soon expanded to address a wider variety of needs. Out of Occupy Medical, Black
Thistle Street Aid was formed during the protests that took place in Eugene in the summer of 2020. The organizations
medical outreach that happens today was born from the conditions created by the pandemic and Black Lives Matter rising.
They continue to host weekly pop-up clinics every Wednesday at Washington-Jefferson Park, the city’s largest sanctioned
encampment.

The work these organizations do is critical in supporting the health and wellbeing of our unhoused neighbors,
taking on responsibilities that the City of Eugene neglects. The recent conditions were described as a “pandemic on top of a
pandemic,’ the coupling of homelessness and COVID-19 has created even harsher conditions among an already neglected
community. During this crisis, the CDC has explicitly advised against the practice of homeless encampment “sweeps,”
or as the City of Eugene thinly veils the term, “evictions.” Sweeps are advised against because they decentralize the sense
of community so essential during a crisis while also spreading COVID-19 outside of the camps where COVID-positive
individuals may have been quarantining. Such was the case in the now infamous sweep that occurred in Washington-
Jefferson Park on December 2, 2020. The city provided only a 48-hour notice of the eviction and then proceeded to
forcefully sweep the camp, where at least one COVID-positive person was trying to quarantine. This cut off access to
the essential medical care, food resources, and community that are essential to well-being both during and before the
pandemic.

When asked what can and should be done to address the issue of homelessness, especially during the pandemic,
volunteers emphasized the importance of changing the narrative around homelessness that would lead to meaningful
legislative actions. Black Thistle Street Aid volunteer, Mackenzie, cites that sweeps are “an outdated practice no matter
what your goal is,’ and it has been proven time and time again that this practice does nothing to reduce the amount of
unsheltered individuals sleeping on the streets in a given night. Ultimately, she points out that the only real solution to
homelessness is widely available and affordable housing. Until the city counters the gentrifying effects of the University of
Oregon, neighborhood associations, and business-owners, housing in Eugene will continue to remain inaccessible to the
population that needs it the most.

So what can be done in the meantime? Donate what you can! Donations are
the quickest and most direct way to help organizations like Occupy Medical, Black
Thistle Street Aid, and CORE to continue to do this essential work that helps our
community and our neighbors.

The Guaranteed Crisis of UO’s Board of Trustees

One year ago, a member of the UO’s Board of Trustees
assaulted a student who was protesting an in-person
board meeting one week into the pandemic closing
campus. Students were dressed in biohazard gear in front
of the main entrance to the Ford Alumni center and were
hoping the weight of the crisis would change the Board of
Trustee's decision to hold a meeting and move forward on
key decisions. The Chairman of the Board, Chuck Lillis,
barreled through the protesters blocking the door and
dismissively barked, “I’m not afraid,’ in response to the
looming pandemic. One year later, we truly assess how
detrimental such
brazen and boastful
attitudes have been for
our society, and even
for the health of our
institution at UO.

The Board of
Trustees went ahead
with their meeting
that day and its effects
on the health of UO
will be felt for many
years to come. While
also taking time to
frivolously spend millions on a second Jumbo-Tron at
Autzen Stadium, the Board executed a tuition plan that
would leave the UO in a precarious financial position in the
face of any form of economic downturn. This was known
as the Guaranteed Tuition plan, and over the course of the
next few weeks as enrollment went into freefall it was clear
that their plan had blown up in their faces. For people that
consider the protection of a public institution a solemn
duty, this might be horrifying. But for the majority of the
Neo-liberals that control the board and choose its President,
it is becoming clear that this is all part of the plan.

Guaranteed Tuition is a scheme whereby the tuition rates
for incoming students are locked in place for five years.
President Schill has admitted that by separating tuition
increases into yearly cohorts instead of increasing tuition
for the whole student body, the administration does not
need to go before the Higher Education Coordinating
Commission (HECC) if it wants to raise tuition above 4%.
Indeed, tuition increased 11% for incoming freshmen this
year, and with enrollment plummeting in the middle of a
recession it appears that there is no limit to how high tuition
increases will go for incoming classes. Furthermore, student
resistance against tuition increases is essentially neutered
through this divide and conquer strategy.

5

The largest problem with Guaranteed Tuition is that if
there is any economic downturn or drop in enrollment, the
entire university is contractually hamstrung for funding.
Oops! With no way to disperse expenses across the
entire student body the university enters a death spiral of
skyrocketing tuition for incoming students and decreasing
enrollment due to those very same increases.

Now there is no option but to restructure the entire
university... but of course that was the plan all along. What
we need to realize as a community is that Neo-liberal
“Chicago Boys” like
President Schill and
Chuck Lillis are toxic
caretakers of public
institutions. Their
interests continually
bend towards
privatization and
profitability. They will
raid public institutions
for capital to finance
private interests.

If they encounter
resistance, they will
create precarious
financial circumstances that undermine the stability of the
established institutions they are caretakers of.

We are now in a position at the UO where departments
have no control over whether they can maintain an
established number of tenured positions because of this
administration's policies. We are also walking into a
financial disaster and radical tuition increases for incoming
students. This does not bode well for the value of a public
education at the University of Oregon.

ASUO senators and student activists directly confronted
the Board of Trustees one year ago and continually
voiced dissent for many months before the Guaranteed
Tuition decision. They were very clear in their opposition
and were quoted repeatedly saying, “this is going to put
UO in a tough spot if something happens.’ The horrible
circumstances of the last year of this pandemic have
completely vindicated those activists and senators. It is time
that the UO takes a different path as a public institution
providing a service to the citizens of Oregon. It is time
for President Schill to resign, the Board of Trustees to be
democratically restructured, and the HECC to take over the
management of UO in the interim.

ASUO Burns Down Athletics Contract

And helps out students during the pandemic

By: Eric Howanietz

At 3pm on February 2, 2021, an email abruptly materialized
in university students and staff’s inboxes announcing

that the administration was giving ASUO until 6:30pm to
vote on a $1.7M athletics contract. The ASUO Executive
Committee had cut a deal with the admin and there would

be an open meeting in an hour at 4pm to discuss a proposal.

The usual plan was to guarantee students athletic event
tickets with funding from the I-Fee budget. It felt like the
entire school was sitting in front of their computers when
that email landed, and at the subsequent Zoom meeting an
hour later all hell broke loose. Activists, alumni, graduate
students, former senators, and even faculty were there-
everyone was pissed. Senate President Isaiah Boyd was on
the spot, having just come out of a pressure cooker with
admin, he was now getting grilled by representatives of
half the student body. Other members of the executive
committee tried to emphasize the contrived urgency of
passing the deal by 6:30pm and were practically shouted
down.

In a year where there was no audience attendance
for any athletic events, why was the
administration focusing on a $1.7M ticket
contract ASUO had with the athletics
department? It was becoming nakedly
obvious what the priorities were at UO,
and the pandemic had opened the eyes
of several senators to how problematic
this situation was. The status-quo of
an athletics giveaway in the I-Fee
budget was being called into
question by students. With intense
concentrations of private Nike
funding already flowing into ,
athletics, why were students
being asked to supplement
tickets for sporting events?

As the meeting
played out and the heat
turned up, the executive
committee made a full
reversal. The senate
almost unanimously
voted down the
administrations
proposed deal
that night,

but everyone was bracing for a bigger fight yet to come. If
President Schill didn't approve ASUO’s budget, it would
have to go before the Higher Education Coordinating
Commission (HECC) in Salem. Many senators were hoping
that, “This is going to the state level and it will turn into a
larger conversation about student fee autonomy.”
As members of ASUO prepared for an ideological slug fest,
suddenly Schill simply approved the budget. Although the
students lost out on a longshot for comprehensive statewide
I-Fee budget autonomy, they achieved a significant local
victory that they quickly moved to utilize. Without the
$1.7M athletics contract in their budget, ASUO brought
together a walloping relief and assistance program for
students during the pandemic. Some of this included a
textbook and housing subsidy, a basic needs coordinator,
and a $49 rebate to all students. One reform implemented
was Legal Services being housed under a different entity
that now allowed its legal advocacy to be used against the
University. Suddenly the ASUO Executive Committee
was singing a different tune, they had obviously taken a
cue from the tenor of their constituency. Over
the course of a couple of weeks the Executive
Committee spearheaded the relief and reform
package, but the admin and the Board of
Trustees (BOT) had different ideas about
how I-Fee money should be used.
By signing off on ASUO’s budget,
President Schill effectively shot himself
in the foot and would now need to
do a dance in front of the BOT in
March. Hilariously, he tried to tack
on a separate $2M ticket fee onto
tuition. But his own rubber stamp
TFAB committee informed
him that this would violate the
Guaranteed Tuition policy
that he had rammed through
l| ast year. ASUO used the
opportunity to issue a
resolution against the
tuition increase and in a
42-2 vote took the time
to buttress their own
budget autonomy.
The articles in their
resolution make

Once more into the breach for climate justice

Breach Collective

Breach Collective is the new Environmental Org in town
making noise across the environmental and climate justice
spectrum. Only officially a non-profit for less than a year,
the collective appears to draw from several environmental
disciplines and various activist orgs. Notably the founders
are former members of Our Children’s Trust staff,

which organized around the landmark Juliana case, and
membership with experience from the Civil Liberties
Defense Center and Cascadia Wildlands.

The focus of their advocacy narrative is directed
at the frontline communities disproportionately suffering
from the climate crisis. And their strategy seems to be a
mix of legal litigation and direct action organizing.

What appears to be new about Breach Collective is the
structure of the organization. It was formed as a non-
hierarchical unionized
worker collective without
bosses or underlings,
inspired by the staff’s
experience fighting for
better labor standards at
their former jobs. It will be
interesting to see how this
idea functions as a non-profit
but it could be part of a larger trend of unionization and
collective control in the non-profit community. Collective
member Dylan Plummer describes it as inspired by the
Mondragon model, which is the largest cooperative in

the world and offers an anarcho-syndicalist vision of a
post-capitalist model. He also describes the collective as,
“Stepping into a breach that wasn't being filled by the non-
profit environmental complex.”

It is clear that a consistent multi-pronged effort to
address all aspects of the climate crisis is emerging in the
activist community. This style of younger activist collective
appears to be pulling even older social and environmental
justice institutions in a more aggressive direction. The
question is will this cause a shift in the stagnant status-quo
of an environmental scene mired in forest partnership
projects and green washing? We can only wait and see if
Breach Collective has the energy, cohesion, and resources
to bring together a new movement.

JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH

F I LM REVI EW: By David Patrick Schranck, Jr

When I heard that there was an Oscar-bait bio-pic coming
out about Fred Hampton, the assassinated Chairman of the
Illinois Black Panthers, I was of course skeptical. Hollywood
very, very rarely does justice to the stories of radicals. Not
even a few months ago, we saw how Hollywood can butcher
stories about radicals with Netflix’s The Trial of the Chicago
7, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin. They turned the
true story of radicals rioting
at the 1968 Democratic
National Convention
in protest of America’s
imperial, anti-communist
crusade in Vietnam into
a dull courtroom drama
with liberal grandstanding
and all the teeth taken out
of the subjects’ ideas and
messages. Keeping my recent
experience watching Chicago
7 in mind, I watched Shaka
King’s Judas and the Black
Messiah expecting to see
one of the greatest socialist organizers in American history
turned into some kumbaya liberal. But, I must say I was
pleasantly surprised by Judas and the Black Messiah.

The film is about how an FBI informant named
William O’Neal (played by Lakeith Stanfield) infiltrates
the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party, headed
by Fred Hampton (played by Daniel Kaluuya), in order
to pass along intelligence and eventually collaborate in
Hampton’s assassination. Kaluuya and Stanfield give two
powerhouse performances that I'd deem as two of the best
I've seen so far during the extended 2020/2021 awards
season. Additionally, Shaka King’s direction, along with the
screenplay he wrote with Kenny and Keith Lucas and Will
Berson, create a very strong combination. King was able
to bring out great performances from his entire ensemble
and the film as a whole feels very cohesive and smooth. The
screenplay stayed very true to Fred Hamptons story and
obviously made an effort to highlight, rather than obfuscate
or water down, Hampton’ explicitly anti-capitalist and
communist beliefs. In fact, the film leans so heavily into
its subject’s radicalism that toward the very end of the
film’s credits we see an illustration with three raised fists
above the messages “FREE ALL VICTIMS OF POLITICAL
OPPRESSION” and “A clenched fist to fallen comrades.”
Additionally, the film makes a point of focusing on the FBI's

central role in seeking to undermine the Black Panthers and
to assassinate Fred Hampton. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
(played by Martin Sheen) is a crucial figure in the film and
Hoover the character directly coordinates with the “nice”
white liberal FBI agent (played by the uncanny, knock-off
version of Matt Damon, Jesse Plemons) who coordinates
O’Neal’s work as an informant. In doing so, the film draws
~ a direct line between the FBI

and Hampton's assassination
but stops short of critiquing
the American police state as
a whole.

I only have a handful
of major criticisms of the
film. First and foremost,
j the fact that a multi-billion
dollar corporate media
conglomerate like Warner
Bros (owned by AT&T) is
now heavily promoting and
distributing a film about
a Black leftist martyr just
doesn't sit right with me. They probably made a bet that
they could get some Oscars from the film and decided to
either overlook or capitalize off the film’s radical politics,
which by my estimation will be a bet that will likely
pay off handsomely for them. Warner historically had a
reputation as a “liberal bastion” among the Hollywood
studios, particularly during Hollywood's Golden Age and
the New Deal era. But, there's no way in hell that Warner
Bros invested millions of dollars into this film simply out
of the “goodness of their hearts.” Second, the film tries to
take a slightly more neutral perspective, gradually guiding
the audience to the conclusions that the filmmakers wanted
them to make. While I understand and respect why they
chose to take this approach, it causes the film to not be as
critical of the law enforcement figures portrayed as they
should have been. Third, the cinematography, while serving
its baseline purposes and never looking bad per se, isn't
necessarily anything to write home about either.

Given all of this, I give the film four out of five
stars. If you want to see the film for yourself, it is currently
streaming on HBO Max and showing in theatres where
theyre open (please don't be a dumb ass and try going to a
movie theatre during an ongoing global pandemic).

Invisible Tears
By Mateo Casaus
Written 2/14/17

Tears say alot about ones face,

Happy, sad, lonely, depressed, worried,
or sick. Even in fear the face,
Sometimes brings about a tear but,
Invisible are my tears that, you cant feel or stop.
Look and see my invisible,

tears are real at times i'm down and out.
My invisible tears appear,

I look into the mirror seeing they,

Are plain and very clear as I see the,
Manifestations the tears fill my eyes.
They become red remembering,

What has been said invisible tears.
Tears will unveil,

What my heart has to tell.

Invisible tears are so so real.

We must remember,

Feelings change,

Memories dont and how can I ever,
Forget my invisible.tears.

They will always

Be the same “invisible”.

I want to say that I am at a loss for words, but that would
be too easy. A few weeks ago, I was given the boxes of
letters, art, and poetry from prisoners throughout the
country that have been sent to the Student Insurgent over
the years from our incarcerated readers. With each letter
I found myself falling more and more in love with this
opportunity I have been given. Being able to be a channel

skulls I found. It makes the art almost like an illusion.
Now I specifically want to talk about/to Gabriel Hinchliff.
Specifically, the envelope. I have already gone through
somewhere around 150 letters and almost all of them
look the same on the outside. A white envelope with an
address on it. So you can imagine my reaction when |
saw this work of art. I was initially confused, I did not
know if this was printed onto the paper or if it was hand-
drawn. I inspected the envelope with care and noticed
the texture of the paper and knew it had to be done by
hand. I was so eager about Gabriel's letter I sent it around
to the crew as the first thing I wanted published. I'm
reaching out to Gabriel and connecting them to some
mental health resources and LGBTQ+ support groups.

Finally, the poem “AM I NEXT” spoke to me. As a
person of color those words go through my brain daily,
and though there are people around me who want me to
feel safe and tell me that “we've come a long way,’ I can't
help but feel like I might be next. AJ Castro is speaking
from the heart in this poem. I feel the emotion and pain
behind these words. Many of you may not and will never
understand what it is like to live with that fear. It takes
courage to be a person of color in America. We are born
with a target on our backs, placed there by the same ones
who gave us ‘freedom.

An Exploration of the Temporary Autonomous Zone

By: J. Ellis AZ-I

“Are we who live in the present, doomed never to
experience autonomy, never to stand for one moment on a
bit of land ruled only by freedom? Are we reduced either to
nostalgia for the past or nostalgia for the future? Must we
wait until the entire world is freed of political control before
even one of us can claim to know freedom?” (Bey, 1991).
How does a community function autonomously,
completely separate from the State? This is a question that
is commonly posed by both proponents and critics of
anarchism. It is difficult to imagine living separate from
police, capital, and a centralized governing body;
but it is not impossible. Autonomous zones have
outwardly defied dominant forms of control
throughout history in a multitude of ways.
Recently we can recall Seattle's CHOP
(the Capitol Hill Organized Protest)
that formed after the murder of
George Floyd in May 2020
as an example of their
relevance today. Ideas
of autonomy have
been embedded A
in political
and artistic
movements
throughout
modern history.
We have seen
autonomous zones in
William S. Burrough’s :
stories of pirate ships, in Xx
radical philosophy and theory,
in the fields of rural Essex, music <S
venues, desert festivals, and on the front
steps of Wall Street and Capitol Hill. Their
impermanence must be understood in order y,
to wholly comprehend the nature of its rebellion >»,
Autonomous zones are effective because they are “Sy,

I am starting to explore various forms of
autonomous zones, analyzing the cultures that support
their existence and the long term impacts of these short
term political movements. In the following months, I
intend to write a series of essays on its different forms
and contributions to their dedicated movements. I will
investigate autonomy in terms of history, music, literature,
food, philosophy, and the Internet to demonstrate anarchy’s
applicability in our day-to-day.

Our discussion of the autonomous zone as we understand
it can be credited to the problematic figure Hakim Bey.
Bey is a pseudonym for anarchist author Peter Lamborn
Wilson, who first coined the concept of the “temporary
autonomous zone” (TAZ) in his 1991 manifesto titled T.A.Z.
The Temporary Autonomous Zone, Ontological Anarchy,
Poetic Terrorism. In it, Bey argues that the TAZ’s greatest
strength is its invisibility and impermanence, “the State
cannot recognize it because History has no definition of it”
(Bey, 1999). The TAZ vanishes as quickly as it appears,
making it a useful tactic in an era where the State is
omnipresent; resistance develops in its cracks.
Look at Seattle’s CHAZ (aka

_ CHOP), which lasted less than a month in
=) June and July of 2020, or the Occupy
Wall Street encampment in Zuccotti
Ly N Park, which was in operation

Bg for just about two months in

\,

the fall of 2011 before the
NYPD finally swept the
camp. These camps
\_ only existed in
their full form
for a period
of a couple
weeks, but
their impact
has rippled for
much longer. These
demonstrations of
autonomy, while certainly
imperfect, prove to the State that
its constituency is indeed capable
of laterally organizing their own, more
egalitarian community. This prospect
scares the shit out of a government that
expects and demands complacent obedience.
That being said, the TAZ can hardly
ever maintain physical permanence, but “such
moments of intensity give shape and meaning to the
entirety of a life” their message resonates beyond the
corporeal (Bey, 1998). This framework of impermanence
is integral to my research on autonomous zones within
the culture of what Bey refers to as the Spectacle. The TAZ
is a jarring abstraction from this distracted, dominant
culture that he describes. What is so significant about the
TAZ, in all its iterations, is its extraordinary and fleeting
existence that operates within the drudgery and toil of the
otherwise ordinary and controlled world. While Hakim
Bey’s character has justifiably been called into question,

\

his definition of the temporary autonomous zone is still
relevant to our visualizations of autonomy to this day.
As Occupy and CHOP demonstrated, developing a TAZ
can serve as a wake-up call to those in power. The TAZ
is a statement of defiance, a rejection of State-sanctioned
cruelty. Their appearance, however brief, disrupts the
natural order and therefore catalyzes change. As argued
in TAZ, perhaps autonomous zones have become more
relevant than ever before in late-stage capitalism “[as]

it sometimes appears that the TAZ is the last and only

opal media once had promise. Technology
is supposed to open doors, to level the playing
field. Yet, its potential has been nabbed

up from our average hands, and funneled
through the sticky web of corporations and
governments. Once again, you can pick your
favorite color. You can pledge your allegiance
to Apple or Google. Or you can be left alone
in a world of helpless third-parties trying
earnestly to help, but being left in the dust.

Let's start looking for other options.
The spectrum is so much broader than Red
or Blue, yet we're crippled if we try and move
outside the paradigm of dichotomy. With all
this technology here to stay, we are finally
seeing its potential again. We are finally seeing
a model that we can look forward to with
some promise. It’s not on the Left and it’s not
on the Right. The future is Decentralized.

Perhaps I’m preaching to the choir
in this radical sheet, but you've probably
heard about Bitcoin by now. You may also
be aware of cryptocurrencies and their
obsequious operation of something called the
“Blockchain.” If you haven't heard of them,
go familiarize yourself with the concepts.
Deny it if you choose, look the other way if
you please, but know that it is here to stay. Its
revolutionary way of restructuring ownership,
accessibility and egalitarianism in the tech
world and beyond is something we can look
to as a way to restructure our own Luddite,
capitalist top-down mode of operations. As
our value in the digital world continues to
grow, we are fighting for personal freedoms
on platforms that know and own our most
personal private property.

I wont go into diatribes about how it’s
not right, but I do feel that our tech is a most
overlooked oppressor, and that we had better
start tackling the corporate dictators who
rule our personal lives by taking ownership
of our digital property. You don't have to buy

bitcoin
(though
you may want

to seriously
consider it). But,
you ought to know where its
roots are and how its invention

of the blockchain has created a
system that is truly leaderless and
verifiable while operating solely on
the contributions of its community members.
It’s a lot of egalitarian tech-jargon that’s over
my head too, but the concepts ring true, and
the implementation is real. It’s time to move
off of centralized media platforms, out of
centralized finance, and away from centralized
authority. Blockchain principles offer that
opportunity to us in a way we have never seen
before.

Tech has quickly become our most
primary tool for modern life, and that fact is
undeniable enough to let it continue to be held
in the hands of private control. Our entire
digital ecosystem is effectively monopolized
by Amazon, Google, Apple and Facebook, and
“regulated” by our grand ol’ government of
senior citizens. I'm not here to plug anything
for you, so go find out for yourself. The appeal
of the phrase “Google it” is great, but I'll tell
you to go search DuckDuckGo for terms like
“DeFi’, “NFT’, “Web3? and “Dapps.” There
is so much promise for our ability to gain

means of creating an Outside or true space of resistance to
the totality” (Bey, 1997). This resistance has many forms.
Occupy and CHOP are perhaps the most traditional and
well-known examples of a TAZ, but not every autonomous
zone should be expected to function in the same way.
Each TAZ is unique to its social circumstances, a TAZ can
appear on the high seas, in a trip to the Nevada desert,
and even in pockets of the Internet. What unites all of its
variations is their defiance of the status quo and earnest
efforts to create an example of a freer reality.

autonomy over our digital
lives and ultimately
independence from
warrantless tracking, the
oppression of the Wall Street

economy, and the ever prying eyes

of global corporations who want to

profit and gain from our most personal needs
and desires. If we have autonomy over our
personal information and our communication
and unfettered access to capital and financial
gain, we have freed ourselves from some

of the greatest tactics of division and
disempowerment. Stop harping on banks and
railing against Facebook and instead start
taking action to capture the power of our
personal lives out of their profiteering hands.

Why you should take psychedelics
with your political opponents...( maybe)

By: Rosie
Like many stoners, when preparing for my psychedelic
experiences I’ve always tried to surround myself
with pleasurable and positive sensory items. I always
assumed that the way to avoid a “bad trip” was to
only trip with familiar people and to avoid potentially
triggering content, however after a very eventful LSD
experience, my perspective has been shifted.

Though I have had prior experience with
mushrooms, I was always hesitant about trying
LSD as it seemed much more daunting (for some
reason?). In late November, during the height of
post election tension, my roommate and I started
acquiring our cannabis from a friendly dude who we
shall call Jimmy for our purposes here. Jimmy seemed
extremely friendly and charismatic, and despite his
propensity towards
cargo pants, we had
no indications of his
backwards political
values, especially after
he enthusiastically
agreed with my
roommates anarchist
and egalitarian rants
during our smoke
sessions.

One morning,
Jimmy came by to
bring us some of our

smoking a joint with

us, offered some acid he had just gotten from a trusted
friend. Though this was my first time trying LSD,

the day was beautiful, I was with my roommate who
I trust, and Jimmy seemed nice enough to trip with,
so I decided “why not?” After an hour, I began to feel
the effects, and spent the rest of the afternoon in bliss
admiring the nature around me. Early in the day the
topic of Twitter came up, when I asked Jimmy what
his twitter handle was, he responded “You wouldn't
like it, I post lots of anti-biden stuff” Of course, this
only intrigued me further (as I also enjoy a good anti
biden meme), so after Jimmy left (and while at the
height of my trip), I decided to investigate further.

It didn’t take long to find his twitter (not much

anonymity), and oh was I in for a surprise.
I was immediately alarmed by a Gaston

“dont tread on me” flag as his pinned tweet, and
numerous likes and retweets from multiple deplorable
conservatives including (of course) donald trump. I
immediately began panicking, and grew increasingly
paranoid over the fact that I had let a trump supporter
into my feminist cottage. However, after my roommate
calmed me down, I decided to follow my academic
curiosity, and messaged him asking for an explanation
of his political values. He responded back with a
very unfortunate paragraph about his conservative/
libertarian values, his future intent to join the military,
and a “comforting” reassurance that he voted for Gary
ugh I am still skeptical).

Though I was
horrified by this
disturbing revelation,
it inspired many
a hours of LSD fueled

dialogue between

my roommate
and I, as well as
with our friends,
about whether it’s
productive to engage
with our political
opponents, especially
when they are so
set in their ways.
Though there are
many different perspectives on this, from my own
personal viewpoint, it can be interesting to look
into the mindset and the driving forces behind the
values of our political opponents, however we must
keep in mind the fact that engaging with those who
have racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, etc.
mindsets can be extremely damaging as it implies
that human rights are up for debate. Though I
would not personally recommend taking acid with a
libertarian, stepping outside your comfort zone when
on psychedelics can open up a much deeper internal
dialogue and is something I consider an important
experience.

ASUO Burns Down Athletics Contract continued...

very clear their position:

2.1 THEREFORE BE IT MOVED THAT the University
Senate calls on UO Administration and the Board of
Trustees to respect ASUO’s autonomy and authority over
their own budget.

2.2 BE IT FURTHER MOVED THAT the University Senate
supports the decision by the ASUO Student Senate to reject
the proposals from the UO Administration that ASUO
send a portion of the money they have saved as a result of
not paying for tickets during the pandemic to UO’s Athletic
Department, and to instead support basic needs programs
and return money to students.

2.3 BE IT FINALLY MOVED THAT the University Senate
opposes the new mandatory Athletics fee on students for
the ticket lottery, and calls on President Schill to work with
the Athletics Department to provide adequate funding

for student tickets from the Athletic Department’s other
sources of funding, or adopt a voluntary plan by which
those students who want to attend intercollegiate sporting
events can purchase a package of tickets from the Athletic
Department for the student section at reduced prices.

Then the faculty also came out against the proposal
and pretty quickly Schill folded. The $2M tuition increase
was scrapped. But then, like a magic money fairy, Schill
found the money through licensing fees from Ducks
merchandise and we can all rest easy as our university
emails are spammed with Nike ads.

came around, as it usually does in the middle of finals
week, the Trustees were scandalized by the conduct of
ASUO. They spent over an hour lauding the importance

of giving poor students the opportunity to attend sports
games they paid for without their consent. The dialogue
turned to questions like, “how do we gain control over
ASUO’s budget?” The BOT didn't seem to realize that
ASUO’s I-Fees were autonomous and were under the false
impression that students were obligated to educate the BOT
on the decisions they made for that money. The vitriol went
round and round so much that eventually Schill’s axe-man
Dr. Kevin Marbury had to step in and inform them that
legally they had no power over that funding. In the end, the
admin had to tuck their tail between their legs and the BOT
begrudgingly voted to approve the I-Fee budget.

What ASUO senators tell us is that it’s amazing
that students were able stand up to the administration and
see past the pressure being put on them by professional
handlers. They listened to, and most of all responded to
their constituency in the middle of a global crisis, instead
of continuing buisness as usual. Though this wasn’t an
ideological triumph, students played their hand extremely
well and this goes to the core of the type of experiential
learning that student groups are supposed to represent.

Politics isn’t for everyone and many times doesn’t
work for anyone, but it seems that the current cohort of
Senators in power are tired of being played and have a good
chance at retaining their incumbency through next year.

mysterious connection between The Student

Insurgent and The Insurgent Sociologist...

Dear Friends and Comrades of Reclaim UO,

As were sure you are aware, 2020 was a rough year for everyone and
Reclaim UO was not left unscathed. When Reclaim UO launched at
the beginning of 2020, we had a lot of involvement with our meetings
and our organizing efforts. We had started to gain some amazing
momentum on the UO campus, in the Eugene/Springfield community,
and at the State Capitol in Salem. Our message resonated deeply with
UO students, faculty, staff, and community members who see the
effects that the anti-democratic, unaccountable Board of Trustees

has had in our lives every day. A strong coalition had begun to form,
and legislators were beginning to see our efforts as a path forward for
strengthening Oregon’s public higher education.

In March 2020, COVID stopped our momentum dead in its
tracks as focus shifted towards the more immediately pressing crisis
our world has been facing. As our conditions were suddenly uprooted,
some of our core organizers, for a multitude of reasons, either lost
contact with us or had to move on to other priorities. We fully

- understand and respect these circumstances. That said, this situation
- has left us with a significantly reduced organizing capacity with a
: much smaller core group of people working within Reclaim UO.

In the face of all the difficulties COVID has presented, we at

> Reclaim UO have done our best to press on. We found opportunities

: to connect our fight to democratize the Board of Trustees with other

: issues on campus such as COVID response and safety measures, calls
: to disarm and dismantle the University of Oregon Police Department,
: and the need for the University of Oregon to divest from fossil fuels.

: Additionally, we were glad to see activists on campus incorporate

> our message and proposals into their demands when they decided to

: bravely chain themselves to the doors of Johnson Hall and forced a

; meeting with UO President Michael Schill during fall term. Reclaim

: UO proudly stood in solidarity with their efforts, and we saw it as a

: pivotal moment in our movement that highlighted the interconnected
: nature of our struggles for progress on campus.

More and more, people are realizing what toll these

; compounding crises are taking and what is the most effective means

: of addressing them. Democratizing the Board of Trustees is the key to

: solving these issues. The current Board structure allows the Trustees to
: ignore our demands for the university to do better and properly serve

: the UO community, instead of wealthy donors and corporate interests.
; We reject this unjust status quo and continue to demand better.

As we've moved into the new year, we've recommitted

: ourselves to this fight to democratize the Board of Trustees because
: we realize how vital this work is and how much it will help future

: generations of UO students, faculty, staff, and the wider Eugene/

; Springfield community. We want to reconnect with those who have
: lost touch with us and do hope you can join our new Discord server.

: Weare hoping to have a relaunch meeting in early April and would

: love your help with planning this. As always, if youd like to get in

: contact with us directly, you can email us at reclaim. highered.uo@

- gmail.com or direct message us on Instagram @reclaimuo. We thank
; you for your continued support of our efforts and look forward to

: reconnecting.

: In solidarity, Reclaim UO
