ALARM no. 6

Abstract

Allen, Garth, et al. ALARM no. 6 (March 1993). Republished by the Environment & Society Portal, Multimedia Library. http://www.environmentandsociety.org/node/7099.

In this issue of the ALARM, the editors explain the history of its name. Maine EF! brings up the subject of political violence against activists and tells the story of police brutality that occured against Mount Blue activists; Anne Petermann reports from the Earth First! invasion of the Conservation Congress in Bristol, Vermont; and Helkat welcomes new voices to the EF! movement.  

"I see very slow changes coming to Earth First!. Changes I most heartedly welcome. In the rough an’ ready macho male world of Earth First! there are other voices: new voices. Voices of women, mothers, lesbians, bisexuals, women in relationships with changing men, warrior women, quiet laid back ones, loud screaming ones… Ah, so many to watch and love in awe."
— Helkat
