Editor: Humboldt County appears hell bent on approving massive projects like the mega cannabis grows and the (proposed) fish factory. In every case, citizens and environmental groups have been clamoring for environmental impact reports (EIRs).

So why is it that the county is so reluctant and unresponsive to the concerns of its constituents in demanding EIRs for major projects? Indeed, how can our reps (supervisors) claim to represent us when they choose to overlook the overwhelming consensus and demand for an EIR? Our communities are faced with significant impacts from these mega projects in the aggregate, from drought to accelerating climate change (wildfires, etc.). Yet, no study has been done to ascertain the cumulative impacts in the aggregate from all these projects put together. An EIR would require that such a study be undertaken.

Under CEQA, an EIR requires a study of all projects combined (in the aggregate) on our precious resources. Why wouldn’t our reps want to have this information before making decisions on major projects if they are truly looking out for our interests? I really don’t get their reluctance.

And what does it say when a major corporation (Nordic Aquafarms), which has agreed to an EIR, is more responsive to constituents than our elected representatives? Sadly, nothing could be more ironic.

The Cost of Cannabis Carbon Editor: The huge cannabis operation in Elk

River installed industrial size electrical service indicative of a large carbon footprint, which is likely the norm for Humboldt County regulated operations.

Unfortunately, the planning process failed to establish carbon emission standards to weigh the emission levels in comparison with sun grown cannabis by small family operations, and the supervisors have yet on provide guidance. Thus, Humboldt County has encouraged and subsidized increased carbon and heat emissions which are driving global warming and forest fire intensity rather than minimizing the impacts.

What can the county do to level the economics playing field while minimizing the carbon footprint?

I request an accounting of carbon impacts from small family sun grown operation emissions with those of large grid tied operations as a predicate step to a county carbon tax and rebate to fund hand tool forest fuel reduction using pyrolysis of slash and sequestration of the char on site in the soils of the forest — sufficient to offset cannabis operation emissions.

We can not afford or survive the impacts or costs of climate change; thus tax and rebate is appropriate.

‘Evidence is Very Clear’

Health officials continue to push vaccinations, revamp approach as another variant arrives in Humboldt

By Iridian Casarez

uring a June 30 Humboldt County Public Health COVID-19 press conference, Health Officer Ian Hoffman reiterated one message: If you’ve been waiting to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, now is the time to get it, especially with the rising cases of COVID variants.

“The first I’ll say is that emerging evidence is very clear, the vaccines work extraordinarily well, they’re extraordinarily safe and effective and they work against the variants — the variants that have been here and the variants that will very likely soon be here, and I am talking about the Delta variant,” Hoffman said.

While it is possible for vaccinated individuals to still get the virus, hospitalizations and deaths are extremely unlikely.

Meanwhile, he said, unvaccinated indi-

viduals are 80 times more likely to get COVID-19.

Humboldt County has only seen a handful of Delta cases but Hoffman said it’s only a matter of time before Public Health begins to see the highly transmittable variant of concern account for a majority of local cases based on past patterns with the alpha and gamma variants.

Mobile Vaccine Clinics

Public Health will continue to offer vaccine clinics to residents looking to get their shots, now with a greater push for mobile vaccine clinics in more rural areas.

State Sen. Mike McGuire, who was also on the June 30 panel, said that the state will be working with the county to hold more mobile vaccine clinics beginning Friday, July 23, in Klamath and again Saturday,

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 8, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

July 24, during the Arcata farmers market.

“What we know is that this needs to remain an all-hands-on-deck effort. State working with the county to ensure that we continue to increase our vaccination rate here on the North Coast,” McGuire said. “In many North Coast counties, the overall vaccination rate is trending lower than the overall state rate. That’s why you’re going to see a continued focus on going out to where folks live, especially in rural California.”

According to the California Department of Public Health, 64 percent of Humboldt County residents eligible for a vaccine have received at least one dose.

Public Health Director Sofia Pereira said her department is working hard to offer more mobile vaccine clinics throughout the county, adding that residents may see

the mobile vaccine clinic at mobile home parks, community centers and churches.

(Those wishing to see the mobile vaccine schedule can look on the MyTurn website or call the Joint Information Center at 441-5000.)

McGuire added that the state is budgeting over $357 million in the next year for immunization grants that will assist public health agencies with continued vaccine rollout.

“While we are seeing great improvement in COVID infection numbers,” McGuire said before offering a word of caution, “This is far from over, and especially as we head into fall and winter, it is up to all of us to be able to get as many folks vaccinated as possible and that means the state needs to put money on the table to be able to help Dr. Hoffman, Director

Pereira get folks vaccinated and make it as easy as possible.”

Reaching the Youth

Public Health officials are warning that all four COVID-19 variants of concern — and especially the new Delta variant — appear more contagious and potentially cause more severe illness in young people.

And while there is “strong evidence” that COVID-19 vaccines are effective against the variants, vaccination rates continue to lag in younger demographics.

“Making up less than a third of the county population, young adults represent nearly half of the county’s total COVID-19 cases,” the county announced in a July 2 press release. “At the same time, vaccination rates are lagging behind in that age group, especially in 20 to 29 year olds, with fewer than 36 percent of them fully vaccinated.

In the same press release, the county noted that the Delta variant was responsible for an unspecified number of “additional cases” locally. Nationwide, the variant currently accounts for roughly one in four new infections, and Hoffman said vaccination is the only thing that will curb spread of the variant and other forms of the virus.

“We are seeing cases in younger folks and sicker people hospitalized, even people in their teens,” he said. “Variants like Alpha appear to be more infectious, more contagious, to make people sicker, and hit younger folks harder than the previous versions of the virus. Until people are vaccinated, this virus will continue to circulate among unvaccinated folks, and the potential for serious illness is still very high, even in the younger age group.”

Over the 14 days before this edition of the Journal went to press, the county confirmed 100 new cases of the virus with six hospitalizations and two related deaths. And with more than 46 percent of the local population fully vaccinated as of June 29, the continued high case rates mean COVID-19 is increasingly spreading in unvaccinated populations.

Over the seven days prior to the Journal going to press, the county reported 53 new cases — including 10 in children age 9 or younger and 13 in residents age 30 to 39. Of the four people hospitalized in that span, three were in their 40s.

response, which will now be supervised by Public Health.

Pereira said the changes will be seen internally through staff changes but to the general public the Joint Information Center will continue to provide daily updates, social media outreach and will continue to answer any COVID-19 questions through the JIC’s COVID information line (4415000).

“We feel that we’ve been able to stabi-

lize the [COVID-19] response structure to a point where we can hand the torch over to DHHS and Public Health in a way that they will be able to sustain the same level of services and the same level of response that we’ve seen for the past 15 months,” Derby said. “What that doesn’t mean is that COVID is over. By no means is it over, there is still a lot of work to be done, a lot of vaccination that needs to go out into the community, ongoing testing and then

the whole recovery aspect that’s likely going to last years.” l Journal news editor Thadeus Greenson contributed to this report.

Breakthrough COVID is Rare in California

A

bout 7,550 out of more than 19.5 million Californians who were fully vaccinated against COVID-19 have contracted the disease, a minuscule percentage that provides strong evidence of the vaccines’ effectiveness, according to state data.

The breakthrough infections through June 23 amount to 0.039 percent of vaccinated Californians — or one case out of every 2,583 vaccinated people.

Most of the infections were minor, but 62 vaccinated Californians died from COVID-19, according to California Department of Public Health data.

“The way we should think about these cases is that they’re very rare,” said George Rutherford, a University of California, San Francisco epidemiologist.

The risks of the disease far outweigh the chance of a breakthrough case: More COVID-19 deaths have been reported in the past four days than the total number of vaccinated people who died from it over the past six months.

On June 30, state health officials reported 2,013 new infections among all Californians, including 24 deaths. They did not respond to a request for comment.

Nationally, out of 154 million fully vaccinated Americans, 4,115 people have been hospitalized or died after contracting COVID-19. That’s a rate of 0.0027 percent.

More than three-quarters were 65 or older. Federal officials do not track total breakthrough infections because many involve minor or no symptoms.

In California, health officials matched data from the state’s immunization registry to a registry of confirmed COVID-19 cases to identify breakthrough cases.

There are some caveats to the data.

While California’s public health agency reported 584 people were hospitalized after a breakthrough COVID-19 infection, hospitalization status wasn’t available for 46 percent of the post-vaccination cases. State officials also noted that some of them may have been hospitalized for an unrelated condition and tested positive for COVID-19 after being admitted to the hospital.

The three vaccines approved for emergency use in the United States — Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson — are considered highly effective in preventing severe disease and death.

They also protect against the coronavirus variants now circulating, including the Delta variant, Rutherford said. Yet a small number of breakthrough infections are to be expected, the CDC says. The agency’s surveillance hasn’t turned up any unusual patterns.

Eugene Choi, a Los Angeles radiologist, contracted COVID-19 in early June, nearly six months after his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Choi detailed his expe-

A groundbreaking, Wiyot-led effort to heal and rebuild while putting land back in Native hands takes root

ust about everywhere she looks throughout Humboldt County, Wiyot Tribal Administrator Michelle Vassel sees need. There’s a lack of well-paying jobs and rampant food insecurity. There’s a lack of skilled trades labor and affordable housing. And for the Wiyot people, who lived in approximately 20 village sites scattered around Humboldt Bay before first contact, Vassel sees a lack of autonomy over their ancestral territory.

But now, on the near horizon, Vassel also sees a solution to some of the region’s most entrenched problems: Dishgamu Humboldt. Named after the Wiyot word for love, Dishgamu Humboldt is a first-of-its kind community land trust, a partnership between the tribe and Cooperation Humboldt that those involved feel will have a transformational impact on the area.

“I think what excites me most is just working on the concept of place-based healing, and looking at building together as a community and coming together as a community and working on the long-

term vision for the place that we all live,” Vassel said, stressing that the project is truly about taking immediate action toward a long-term vision. “We’re looking at multi-generational. We’re looking past 10, 20, 30 years. We’re looking at 100 years, 200 years, 250 years.”

If you get Cooperation Humboldt co-founder David Cobb to tell you Dishgamu Humboldt’s origin story — not the elevator pitch but the cocktail party version — an undeniable irony comes into sharp focus. Long before Cobb and Vassel hatched plans for the Wiyot-led land trust that aims to address pressing needs while putting land back under Wiyot ownership throughout the tribe’s ancestral territory, there was a wealthy white man.

It was the summer of 2017 when Robin

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 8, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

Arkley — whom Cobb describes as “Humboldt’s own Mr. Potter” — took to the radio waves to lambast the city of Eureka’s plans to return 200 acres of Tuluwat Island back to the Wiyot Tribe from whom it had been violently stolen 150 years prior.

“We’re giving it away! To the Natives!”

Arkley said incredulously, protesting that he and his kids liked using the island and shouldn’t be prevented from doing so simply to right a multi-generational wrong that began with the slaughter of more than 100 unarmed people, mostly women, children and elders.

The billionaire’s effort to keep the island from being returned to the Wiyot Tribe ultimately failed, with the city showing no interest in his offer to pay more than twice the appraised value of the island and the city council remaining resolved that Tuluwat should be returned to the people who hold it sacred. But seeds were planted that day that are just now beginning to bear fruit.

When some 150 people turned out to protest in front of Arkley’s Eureka office in the weeks following his comments on the radio, Cobb and Vassel met for

the first time and a connection was born, one that has since led to a deep friendship. And Cobb said the gravity of the moment struck him — with the city of Eureka taking the monumental and unprecedented step of giving back tribal lands — and stuck with him, noting that, years later, he still has the “I Stand with Wiyot” sign he held that day.

At the time, Cobb was working to get Cooperation Humboldt off the ground with Tamara McFarland. The pair committed to pay 1 percent of the nonprofit’s gross income annually to the Wiyot Tribe as an honor tax.

When the nonprofit was ready to begin taking on projects — tackling food sovereignty and working toward the development of a solidarity economy — Cobb and McFarland went to the tribe to ask for its input.

“I am an uninvited guest on un-ceded Wiyot territory,” he says. “The best thing I can do is heed the teachings Carlo Campagna, 8, of Eureka, draws with chalk during a 2017 of my mama and protest in front of Robin Arkley's Security National Servicing my poppa: ‘If you’re Corp.

and — if successful — holds the promise of generational reverberating impacts.

Dishgamu Humboldt isn’t your typical land trust. First off, its bylaws were constructed to make sure delegates of the Wiyot Tribe control the land trust in perpetuity, requiring the organization’s seven-member board always be made up of four delegates from the tribe, and one each from Cooperation Humboldt, the Humboldt Area Foundation and Full Spectrum Capital Partners, which is creating the Gouts Lakawoulh Hiwechk (money that makes us well, in Wiyot) Fund to finance the land trust.

“This is a Wiyot-led experiment and we are taking an appropriate four-to-one role,” Cobb says. “It’s an organizational commitment in perpetuity.”

Cobb and Vassel have their sights set on a variety of ambitious projects, from eco villages and cooperative home ownership to low-income housing and worker-owned cooperatives. The through line of all the ideas is that the land trust will purchase properties in Wiyot ancestral territory for the tribe, which will own the land moving forward while the land trust or other partners would own and manage the buildings.

Take for example, the idea of a housing co-op. The land trust could purchase and renovate an existing Victorian, turning it into a four-plex. The land underneath the home would be owned by the tribe, but then four families could together purchase the building itself at an affordable price, perhaps even with added financing from the land trust.

“It would put home ownership in reach for people who typically and historically couldn’t even imagine it,” Cobb says.

The same basic idea would be at play for an eco village, Cobb says, explaining that the land trust would purchase the kind of property that would normally be subdivided in an unincorporated area of the county. But instead of building four or six traditional three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes, it would be a tiny home subdivision, which could accommodate more housing units, while also creating a walkable neighborhood with communal features, like solar panels, organic gardens, fruit trees and even horticulture ponds.

“It’s high-density that feels and looks much more bucolic,” Cobb says.

Cobb pauses a moment from discussing the specifics of various project ideas to reiterate that the whole concept of Dishgamu Humboldt is that it is Wiyot-led, allowing the people who have inhabited the county since time immemorial to lead a path forward to the benefit of all.

“Land back is not just a slogan,” he says.

“This is how we make it real.”

The first projects up for Dishgamu Humboldt are outliers, as they won’t actually involve land ownership. The city of Eureka is in the process of requesting proposals to build apartment complexes on city-owned parking lots in an effort to ease a housing shortage and compacted rental market, both of which contribute to the city having one of the highest rates of homelessness in the country. Dishgamu Humboldt plans to submit two proposals: one for elder housing and the other for family units. Plans for both are intensely focused on sustainability.

Cobb, who has been consulting with the Schatz Energy Research Center at Humboldt State University, says the plans call for the use of laminated mass timber, a cutting edge technology.

“It’s beautiful,” he says. “It sequesters carbon. It’s an amazing thing. Our proposal is going to be incredibly beautiful and it’s going to be not just greenwashed, it’s going to be deep green. … You and I and your readers will want to live there.”

Vassel adds that the land trust is committed to using not just local labor for its projects, but an apprentice labor model.

“There’s just not enough skilled labor here,” she says. “So we need to grow people with the projects to be the people

In December of 2019, the nonprofit Cooperation Humboldt helped the Wiyot Tribe organize protests against Terra-Gen’s plans to erect a large wind farm on Bear River Ridge, an ancestral prayer site known to the Wiyot people as Tsakiyuwit, cementing a working relationship between the tribe and the nonprofit.

Vassel says she’s been working with College of the Redwoods and local contractors, as well as organizations like Pacific Builders, the Arcata Economic Development Corporation and the Small Business Development Center, to build apprenticeship programs that will expand the impacts of all Dishgamu Humboldt’s projects.

“We’re just trying to connect all the dots, finding contractors willing to apprentice people and finding people who want to apprentice,” she says. “It’s really needed in our area. It’s not just the place to teach — College of the Redwoods provides classes, but they also need projects to work on and licensed professionals in the field to work with.”

Developing housing complexes on city-owned parking lots provides a great opportunity for the land trust, Cobb and Vassel say, as it would allow the fledgling organization to complete two large-scale projects — proving its ability to do so — without the necessary capital outlay of purchasing land.

Vassel says the land trust team has been consulting regularly with its “financial integrity team,” which includes folks like county Treasurer John Bartholomew,

Redwood Region Economic Development Executive Director Gregg Foster, Redwood Coast Rural Action Director Kathy Moxon and former Humboldt Area Foundation Executive Director Peter Pennekamp, among others. But the cornerstone of Dishgamu Humboldt’s capital effort will be the Gouts Lakawoulh Hiwechk Fund.

Speaking to the Journal via a video

conference from the Bay Area on an afternoon in June, Taj James is all smiles. For 20 years, James says he ran an organization called the Movement Strategies Center in Oakland, which worked to “bring people together to solve problems.”

But many of the organizations James worked with, it turned out, had a shared problem.

“Many of the communities we worked with realized they needed a more robust economic development strategy,” he says, adding that caused him to shift gears to start Full Spectrum Capital Partners, an organization dedicated to pairing philanthropic individuals and organizations, investors and other funders with community-based organizations doing good work.

That work ultimately led James to Cooperation Humboldt and a series of Continued on next page »

meetings on the North Coast with a variety of organizations. James says he listened excitedly as the land trust idea came together.

“A really powerful way to really uplift the whole community is to support the leadership of the Wiyot people and tribe in helping us all figure out how to take care of the land and take care of each other in a way that’s restorative and innovative,” he says. “The needs are real and the ideas are really exciting.”

And that, he adds, will appeal to investors and donors. James said the details will take shape on a project-by-project basis, but the fundamental strategy is to pair philanthropic giving, grants and tax incentives — including those available to tribal communities — with conscious investors who are willing to take their money out of Wall Street and put it to use locally. Keys to that effort, James says, will be getting local investment initially — showing the rest of the world that Humboldt believes in efforts taking place in its own backyard — and completing a kind of flagship project the organization can point to as an example of what’s possible.

“The scale of economic development that’s needed to really transform the quality of life for the majority who live there is significant,” he says. “Significant resources are required. But those resources are available.”

Cobb, for his part, says initial fundraising efforts have already proven successful

and he’s fully confident that will continue, saying people are thirsty to both give to impactful restorative justice efforts like this and to invest in more just economic structures. And when the new land trust is fully up and running, Cobb says he intends to step down as executive director of Cooperation Humboldt to work under Vassel as one of Dishgamu Humboldt’s first employees.

Vassel says the whole effort has been an exercise in “creating as we go,” as there simply isn’t an existing model for a tribally led land trust organization that looks to put land back in Native hands while managing one economic revitalization project at a time to meet urgent community needs.

“There really wasn’t a setup for this kind of thing so we’ve been working on developing it,” she says. “It’s Wiyot-led and it’s land back.” l Thadeus Greenson (he/him) is the Journal’s news editor.

Community Spotlight:

Annie & Mar y Day T

he Blue Lake Chamber of Commerce is very excited to be putting on its 53rd annual Annie & Mary Day celebration on Sunday, July 11th after last year’s hiatus due to the Covid pandemic.

Annie and Mary Day is a celebration of the historic Arcata Mad River Rail Line, named after Annie Carroll and Mary Buckley, two bookkeepers who were employed by the railroad around the year 1907. This community wide event brings many people together in an atmosphere that encompasses old time fun and revelry.

The day will begin at 11a.m. with the always entertaining and quirky parade featuring music, clowns, floats and other excitement. From noon-

5p.m. the action moves to Perigot Park. There will be barbecue and other food items, craft vendors, petting zoo, pony rides and a car show. Music will be provided by the Backseat Drivers, Dead On, Cadillac Ranch and Barn Fire.

Blue Lakers refer to their town as the Center of the Universe. Annie & Mary Day gives them an opportunity to share their special place with not only others in Humboldt County but also with tourists from out of the area. This festival is a combination of the charm of Norman Rockwell’s small town America flavored with hints of the 60’s, the quirkiness of Dell’ Arte and the beautiful setting of Blue Lake’s Perigot Park.

This is a family fun FREE event

ON THE TABLE

A Little Razz-Ma-Tazz

A family soul food truck comes to Eureka

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

O

n Juneteenth, the silver RazzMa-Tazz Soul Food truck sits parked between the Southside Mike’s BBQ and Taste of Bim trucks with a small crowd in front and a handful of young people running orders to patient customers. The fryer was down and the crew had to cook some 200 pieces of marinated and coated chicken in a pan on the truck’s stovetop.

When it was all over, owner LaToya Fields says she “ugly cried” in gratitude. “It worked, we’re OK and, oh my God, this is happening.”

A year ago, after chatting about starting a mobile business, a friend shared a Craigslist ad for a truck with Fields, who’d been cooking and selling plates from home on and off. She says she was the only one who showed up with a vehicle that could haul it away and so became the proud owner of the former Simmer Down trailer. After she and her family sanded off the yellow paint, painted on a logo her daughter Taziyah Harris drew — a queen with Afro-puffs — and got vinyl lettering from another friend, it was reborn as the Razz-Ma-Tazz soul food truck.

Fields is used to cooking for a crowd, a skill she learned from her mother growing up in Compton. “My mom has always been an amazing cook and she did foster care for a while … so it was just a mass cooking situation.” To feed Fields and her brother, along with four or five other children, her mother would cook in batches and make up plates they could grab from the fridge.

“I was always in a kitchen,” either helping at home or hanging around at the restaurant/bar her mom was managing, she says.

When Fields moved to Humboldt in 2014 to attend Humboldt State University, she didn’t have a job so started selling food to get by, offering $10 plates to her daughter Taziyah’s teachers and on a Facebook page. Even after finding a regular job, she kept it up on the side here and there.

“My graduation cap said ‘Compton Built, Humboldt Strong,’” she says. “Hum-

boldt made me put on my big girl panties and figure things out.”

That included some of her grandmother’s recipes for traditional African American soul food — all of which say, “season to taste” — with the help of her mother. “My grandmother is from Mississippi and my dad is from Chicago, and it’s just in the seasoning. … When she would make sweet potato pie, we would fight over who gets how much.” That pie, like Fields’ peppery black eyed peas, has to sit overnight to “settle” to taste as it does in her memory. Like her grandmother, she’s not eager to document exact measurements for everything. “I have to smell — I stand over the pot of greens and I season, and I just know.”

Fields wasn’t alone missing the stewed oxtails, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, fried chicken and cornbread she grew up eating. What didn’t fit in her freezer after feeding her family went to appreciative friends. And eventually her Facebook page had some 300 followers.

She took orders, cooked, made up plates and drove around with deliveries. And like Fields, her daughter learned those recipes by helping in the kitchen.

“She made the waffles while I made the chicken,” Fields says. “That’s my little broke best friend. She rocks with me on all my crazy ideas.”

Now set up with a spot for the truck at 1411 Broadway at the corner of 14th Street in Eureka, a food handling license, commercial kitchen at Redwood Acres and help from friends and family, including boyfriend Staci Fowler, a Chicago-based caterer, Fields is determined to build the business for Taziyah. “This is for her to have something.” She says she told her

teenage daughter, who’s taking culinary classes through her school, “If you want to travel and when you go to college, this business will help you pay for that.”

Taziyah and her sister Caci Fowler staff the truck with three other teens, who are all “full employees.” Fields says, “I’m hoping it’s sustainable, the kids are excited.” After figuring the cost of re-upping her food supply, she split the Juneteenth profits with the kids. “I want them to feel appreciated, to feel that their hard work is not for nothing. … They’re not privileged kids. … I don’t want them to feel taken advantage of.” After being on her feet all day, one of the teens, Fields says, proudly told her it was the first time she’s ever bought herself shoes.

Fields is trying to keep the cost of menu items low. So long as it’s sustainable, a hefty chicken thigh smothered in gravy is $2.75, a fried pork chop is $4.50, a shareable helping of meatless greens is $3.75 and the peach cobbler that sold out early on Juneteenth is $3.75. In a food truck market seeing upscale menus and prices of late, it’s eyebrow raising, but she has her reasons. “I know what it’s like to be a struggling parent and your bills are already killing you and needing good food and wanting good food,” she says. “I want to survive and I want to be successful, but not at the expense of not letting people eat good food.” l Jennifer Fumiko Cahill (she/her) is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

Into The Great Wide Open

A

s I write this, I am nursing a mild sunburn and what I increasingly suspect is carryover of inebriation from a day of patriotic drinking and grilling. Such is the nature of things but I have to say these are mild wounds compared to the pleasure I had of having people around and feeding them while listening to music and talking.

I’ve come to realize that one of the greatest pleasures in life is good company and the cheer it brings. It echoes with such a resonance that we have centuries of song and dance about that very subject to entertain us still. We’re social creatures who work best in cohesive groups. That’s really the core of my political and artistic life, to be honest. A love of people, despite ourselves.

If you are a member of the Humboldt music community, then you are probably aware we lost one of our own in April, when Timmy Gray died. I didn’t know the man closely so it isn’t my place to eulogize him, but Tim was an inescapable figure either behind the soundboard or on the drum kit, and if you have experienced live music in this county in the last few decades, he was likely behind quite a lot of it. Some people leave a benign energy in their wake and I know enough about this fella and the people missing him to know that he was one of the good ones. So I’ll pour one out to

a fellow traveler and do my part to spread the word that there will be a celebration of his life at the Arcata Playhouse on Friday starting at 6 p.m.

Never forget that the people who wish you were still here are your best epitaph.

Have a beautiful week.

Thursday

Laney Lou and the Bird Dogs is a Montana band that specializes in a rigorous and energetic style of acoustic music the group describes as “stomp-grass.” Although this descriptor seems pretty straightforward to me, if you are having any doubts about its meaning, I suggest that you come to The Jam at 7 p.m. to figure it out for yourself.

The second-fiddle support slot will be filled

by Hill Honey & the Wildcats (so many animal names, RAWR!), which I haven’t had the pleasure of hearing yet. Scanning the group’s photos, I see some familiar faces in the lineup, so I can say with supreme confidence that this band has some serious talent in the roster ($15, $10 advance).

I wrote recently that I had broken my indoor live music fast by seeing Conman Bolo at the Siren’s Song. Even if I hadn’t been starved of live music and its intoxicating pleasures, I would have raved about

Jackson once put it so succinctly, the best things in life are free. And this party is no exception.

Sunday

Annie and Mary Days are back, my dears, after a year off because of you-know-what.

So I would suggest getting your caboose down to Perigot Park in Blue Lake for a day full of good times with other people. Holy moly, we can actually see other people, many of them strangers, in a safe social setting actually encouraged by society. The mind reels. Lots of things are happening here today but my beat is music and today’s lineup is pretty clutch. Expect excellent sets from Dead On, The Backseat Drivers, Cadillac Ranch and my favorite little honky tonkin’ thunder group Barn Fire (free).

There’s a new kid on the block and the best way to herald their arrival is ... what else? A block party. And Brainwash Thrift is doing us all one better by throwing a month of Saturday block parties to introduce itself to the community.

the show because these dudes are great musicians. The music they’re playing is a sincere brand of what the internet dubbed “yacht-rock” about a decade ago and which is best described as “jazz-related soft rock.”

Think Christopher Cross or any Michael McDonald song sampled by a ’90s rapper and you get the idea. Anyway, it was fun for me and, as a grade A certified Steely Dan freak, I enjoyed the dulcet tones and soothing sax — even if saxophonist Jesse Garate lied to me about pulling out a cover or two from the Dan’s discography.

ara and I are very different. The first time I met this gorgeous woman was at 2 a.m. in a wide pasture after a birthday party that was quite a celebration. She was almost silent and I didn’t think much about it. More time went by and Sara came to Costa Rica with three other girlfriends to ride with me for a week, as I progressed on a longer trip through Central and South America.

When we had to cross a flooded river swollen with the previous five days’ rains, she dug in her heels like a donkey and refused to continue. I crossed back and forth without my bike to demonstrate how safe it was. I carried a long stick to deter potential crocodiles, which was not convincing. A tree came loose and swept downriver where I had just been standing. If we had been portaging our gear at that moment, one or several of us would have been in serious danger. As it turns out, a donkey is the only animal in the barnyard with sense enough to stop when it feels danger and Sara was right on this one. The five of us retreated seven soggy miles to camp on the lawn of a closed hostel, puddles forming around our tent in that evening’s downpour.

When I decided I wanted to do all 10 Sea to Summits, a series of human-powered Humboldt adventures starting at the ocean (“Sea to Summit Part 1: Bald Mountain,” April 22), I started planning the nearby ones on weekdays and the most complicated ones on the weekends. I asked Sara, who had a flexible work schedule, to join me to Trinidad and Strawberry Rock, a ride we had both done many times.

We left my house on West End Road, thinking this would be a morning ride. We rode north through mostly sunny skies without much ado, catching up since we hadn’t seen each other in months. We went directly to the beach, which was totally socked in with thick fog and bustling with a meeting of junior lifeguards. It was a strange, festive but muted atmosphere. We went all the way to the water, saying hi to the high school kids in their hooded wetsuits. They eyed us curiously as we awkwardly carried our bikes over the deep sand. On our way back to Trinidad proper, we decided to take a different route just to mix things up.

Suddenly we were in some vortex of space, on a singletrack trail, crawling under and lifting our bikes over orange construction netting. No one was around. I have been in

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 8, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

this area hundreds of times but I found myself asking, “Where the heck are we?”

Sara is always up for adventure, so I knew she was enjoying this mid-day, mid-ride cliff side excursion. We found our way back to pavement, cut through the Murphy’s parking lot, and got ready for the next section, where we rode and walked our bikes on a single and double track trail.

This trail leads to Strawberry Rock, a high point offering breathtaking views of the surrounding redwood canopy that is unfortunately and definitely not on public land. The many people who take the trail up are actually trespassing on land owned by Green Diamond Resource Co. Vice President of Forest Policy and Sustainability Gary Rynearson says that while the company does allow access permits for scientific research, educational tours and special events, “Uncontrolled public access on actively managed timberlands poses a significant safety risk.”

Since 2013, Green Diamond and Trinidad Coastal Land Trust have been trying to negotiate the purchase of an easement through the property (“Standing with Strawberry Rock,” Dec. 20, 2018). According to Executive Director Carol Vander Meer, the Trinidad Coastal Land Trust is “still in the process of working with our partners to secure public access.” But for now, unless you have one of those permits, it’s still trespassing.

We ran into an old friend and a few others on the way. We hid our bikes in the bushes and continued on foot. When we reached the rocky, scrambling part, it was my turn to be scared. “I don’t know if I can do this,” I said. Sara’s already wide eyes looked at me like I was a wimpy, wilting, pathetic celery stalk. Which maybe I was.

She said, “You crossed that crocodile-infested river in Costa Rica but you won’t do this? You see that little girl up there? She’s like 7. If she can do it, you can do it.”

OK, fine. We went up, my heart racing a little as I vowed to reward myself with a burger upon my safe exit of this terrifying precipice. We reached the top and all (or most) of my fear dissipated when the sun and the views met my eyes. Wow. We could see the ocean, the incoming fog, thousands of redwood tops, as if we could hop, skip and jump over their soft tops.

The writer high atop Strawberry Rock.

We retraced our steps, riding what we could down the rocky trail, dismounting just before crashing into the bushes, occasionally meeting the bush before fully dismounting.

We were on road bikes with skinny tires, after all.

I am known for my unrealistic time frames, always trying to squeeze too many things into too few hours, but this all-day adventure was a gross miscalculation, even for me. We rewarded ourselves by splitting a burger at the beloved Lighthouse Grill before realizing we still had more than 20 miles to ride home. The dazzling ride along Scenic Drive is always and forever delightful, stunning me constantly with the water’s shades of sapphire turquoise and cerulean.

The waves feel intimate, no matter how rough the chop is. The sun dappled through and life was good, pandemic or not. Once we got to West End Road, the final stretch of rolling dips and rises felt huge and Sara said she was done. I cautiously reminded her, not for the first time in our friendship, that our options were rather limited and we best keep pedalling. So we mentally broke up the remaining miles into sections and regaled each other with juicy stories from our pasts. I hope none of the ranchers could hear the salacious details. The gossip did the trick and before we knew it, it was time to pedal our separate ways to our respective houses. My husband asked how it went, and all I could say through my 52-mile sunburned smile was, “It was good. It was really, really good.” l Hollie Ernest (she/her) is a botanist and forestry technician on hiatus from an international bike tour.

FISHING THE NORTH COAST

Reliable Rockfish Catches Keeping Fleet Afloat

341 West Harris St., Eureka 707 445-3138

By Kenny Priest

fishing@northcoastjournal.com

W

ith an early closure of Pacific halibut and a slow start to our salmon season, the one steady fishery at the moment is rockfish.

From Shelter Cove north to Crescent City, limits of quality rockfish and ling cod have been the norm. In a season with not much left to fish for, they’ve been a blessing. From charters to private boaters, it’s refreshing to know that you can head to where they live and almost count on coming home with a bounty. For the boats that make a living on the water, it’s been a godsend. With our salmon numbers on the decline and a halibut quota that doesn’t seem to match abundance, rockfish has been the one species we can count on. The season in the Northern Management Area for boat-based anglers, which includes Del Norte and most of Humboldt County, runs from May 1 through Oct. 31, seaward of 30 fathoms (180 feet), and Nov. 1 through Dec. 31 rockfish may be taken at any depth. For a complete list of rockfish regulations, visit www.wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Ocean/Regulations/Groundfish-Summary#north.

Weekend marine forecast Northerly winds and seas will increase beginning Thursday. As of Tuesday afternoon, Friday’s forecast is calling for north winds 5 to 15 knots and waves northwest 5 feet at seven seconds. Saturday’s forecast is calling for northwest winds 10 to 15 knots and waves northwest 7 feet at eight seconds. The winds will increase Sunday to 10 to 20 knots with waves northwest 8 feet at eight seconds. These conditions can and will change by the weekend.

The Oceans: Eureka

According to Tim Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing, no one has found the salmon as of yet. “The ocean hasn’t been great, so there hasn’t been much effort,” said Klassen.

“As far as I know, no one has really ventured south between the stacks and Trinidad.

There’s a lot of water that hasn’t been

Salmon fishing has been pretty slow the last few days, reports Jake Mitchell of Sea Hawk Sport Fishing. “Boats are averaging about a half a fish per rod,” said Mitchell.

“Most of the effort is happening right off the point in 40 to 50 feet of water. The rockfish bite has really been solid all week as well. The black rockfish bite has been wide-open close to the beach.”

Spring-run salmon have been caught daily in the estuary since the July 1 opener.

Fresh kings are moving in with the tides and starting to stack up as the water temperatures are over 70 degrees. Anchovies rigged with a spinner blade has been the top producer so far. The best fishing has been on the incoming and a couple hours after the high.

Lower Rogue

Sport salmon season opened last Tuesday and there were a handful of salmon caught, including some bigger ones,” said Britt Carson of Crescent City’s Englund Marine. “There’s a handful of salmon being caught daily, mostly coming from the south. The rockfish bite remains solid, with limits reported by just about everyone.

The California halibut bite is decent, with guys tossing swimbaits off the rocks and the kayaks catching a few each day.”

Brookings

Rough weather has kept boaters in close while fishing for salmon out of Brookings, reports Andy Martin of Brookings Fishing Charters. He said, “Charter boats are getting a fish or more per rod, with some catching limits. Small anchovies trolled just below the surface are working best. Commercial boats are doing well

“Salmon fishing hit peak season form on the Rogue Bay last week, with many guides getting limits and private boaters also getting a fish per rod or better,” said Martin. “Salmon are holding up in the bay because of warm water upriver.

SCREENS The only time you should ever assume a woman is pregnant.

False Positive

Retro Dread Redux False Positive and No Sudden Move

By John J. Bennett

screens@northcoastjournal.com

REVIEWS

FALSE POSITIVE. To dispense with it at the outset: Yes, Rosemary’s Baby (1968) is part of the conversation. It has been for more than half a century. It arguably invented — or at least created a lasting identity for — mainstream American horror movies and, in so doing, created its own ripple-effect of sub-genres within sub-genres that is still being repeated. As always, there is an argument to be made by scholars with better educations than I about predecessors, pretenders, etc., but, in its way, Rosemary’s Baby was Jaws before Jaws.

As innovative as it was (and continues to be), that movie is very much a product of its time, one of the earmarks of which being its apparent relative silence on the politics (geopolitical, gender and otherwise) of the day. One of the subversive successes of the movie, of course, is the implicit discussion of women’s lack of agency in American culture, much less dominion over their own bodies. (It gets a little dicey when we bring director and convicted child rapist Roman Polanski into the discussion.) Because that theme is cloaked in Gothic horror, with ominous overtones of good and evil, God and the Devil, and all of that, the movie would seem to have been a popular success almost in spite of itself. It scared people in a way they hadn’t been scared and, arguably, got away with the trick of satire largely unnoticed. I didn’t see it in 1968 and decades later did not watch it as cultural commentary on its era; I was too immersed in the story.

All of which is an unfair but unavoidable preamble to some thoughts about False Positive, feature debut from director John Lee, starring Ilana Glazer and co-written by Lee, Glazer and Alissa Nutting.

Lucy (Glazer) and Adrian (Justin Ther-

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 8, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

oux) are, by all appearances, a definitively happy, successful couple, except for their seeming inability to conceive. After two years of attempts, Adrian calls in a favor from his apparent mentor and colleague Dr. Hindle (Pierce Brosnan). Hindle has pioneered an artificial insemination method, an innovative and staggeringly successful technique that very quickly produces the desired result for the couple.

As the pregnancy progresses, though, biological complications rapidly give way to psychological and sociological ones, and Lucy finds herself struggling to maintain some understanding of reality as it is happening to her.

The skeleton of this story, needless to say, calls back clearly to Rosemary’s Baby; while it probably could not hope to have the impact and resonance of that movie, False Positive does a more intentional, more inventive job of using the archetypes of something canonical to comment on contemporary culture than most. Occasionally it overindulges its own sense of whimsy, with “dream sequences” or manipulated perspectives on reality, causing the narrative to sag. In spite of such moments, though, the movie overall is concise, compelling and an appropriate, timely comment on patriarchy and birth politics in 21st century America. With more than a little body horror, some knowing glances and a truly memorable final shot. R. 92M. HULU. NO SUDDEN MOVE. Steven Soderbergh gets as much play here as any Big Name director. Were Quentin Tarantino (or a handful of others) to make a movie every year, he would certainly contend for the title, but that’s the point. Tarantino — like him/his work or not — has a very specific plan for his career: He has had the admitted good fortune

of working as an auteur in an industry that barely knows what that means, and so he works in with old-fashioned methods at a deliberate pace. I’ve referred to him, not without affection, as a dinosaur. Soderbergh is, to overuse a weak metaphor, a shark: can’t stop won’t stop. He threatened retirement almost a decade ago, when he felt his frustration with the industry was simply insurmountable. But then he found the space within himself to transcend and transgress; technology caught up with his ultra-economical ethos and now, in his late period, he has been more prolific and arguably more consistent than ever before. Which, by extension, means more than anybody else.

In his continuing, laser-like reading of the landscape, Soderbergh made a deal with HBO/Warner Bros. (after working with Netflix). Last year that arrangement yielded Let Them All Talk, which of course was unsurprisingly surprising and well worth seeking out. Now we have No Sudden Move, a 1954 Detroit-set caper/ industrial espionage thriller starring Don Cheadle and Benicio Del Toro, among many others. Written by Ed Solomon, the script plays ingeniously with Angus MacPhail and Alfred Hitchcock’s notion of the MacGuffin, while also elliptically describing a power struggle among the organized crime and more organized crime figures (read: titans of industry) controlling the cash and cultural currency of Detroit.

The city stands in, of course, for the American experience at large.

Soderbergh ramps up the visuals here, with wiiiiiide angle lenses creating a sometimes discomfiting, distorted sense of events. It’s an elegant way to present the material, though, which is all about betrayal and appearance versus reality. R. 115M. HBOMAX. l

NORTH COAST NIGHT LIGHTS

Happy Endings at Vista Point

By David Wilson

ncnightlights@northcoastjournal.com

A

fter paying a second nighttime visit to this vista point in two years, I can safely say that a dull nocturnal moment rarely passes at this viewpoint looking up the Eel River Valley. I had come to the spot precisely two years before to make some nighttime photographs, and on both occasions the comings and goings of travelers tossed an interesting spice into the night.

When my friend Ryan Freitas and I arrived (in separate cars due to COVID-19), there was a vehicle already parked where I needed to put the camera for the angles I wanted. Pulling in behind them, we turned off our cars and headlights to await their departure. It was a short wait, for apparently we had unintentionally crowded them sufficiently to cause them to scoot down the way a little.

Excellent! We fired up our cars and hastened to fill the spot they had just vacated … which was evidently again too close for them, for they soon left with what I believe was a cry of exasperation sounding from within their vehicle. Many apologies to you, good people — just trying to get the shot.

This time of year, the Milky Way is the star of the heavens, but a dark cloud hung obstinately in the nighttime sky, perfectly obscuring it as other clouds blew by. Is that even possible? Almost anything is possible when trying to get a nighttime photograph.

We waited, hoping it would blow away, using the time to make a few experimental exposures to test the evening’s lighting.

As we waited, another car pulled up not far behind us, bathing us in the glare of its headlights. Standing in their twin spotlights, it occurred to me that my first impulse is to turn my headlights off as soon as possible when there are people about.

But their headlights remained trained on us, casting extended shadows down the road and along the hillside behind us.

We couldn’t photograph while standing in their twin spotlights. I considered walking over to ask them if they would turn

Photo by David Wilson their lights off for us but, as we waited, sounds of merriment began to issue from their car, and it was soon evident that their attentions were entirely engaged within.

“Ryan,” I said, “I think they’re having sex in there.”

He indicated the hillside. “Yeah, look at the shadows on the hill.”

The long shadows cast by the vehicle’s headlights moved on the hillside.

OK. We waited. Their headlights remained trained directly on us.

The sky finally cleared and the Milky Way was revealed. But in the blaze of their headlights we still could not photograph it.

At last the activity died down, and soon their headlights moved off down the

road. The sideshow was over and we were once again in darkness. The Milky Way was still visible between passing clouds and we could finally take some photographs. It was a happy ending for all concerned.

By Rob Brezsny

Homework: Send word of your most important lesson of the year so far. Newsletter@freewillastrology.com

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com ARIES (March 21-April 19): Poet Joshua Jennifer Espinoza writes, “i name my body girl of my dreams / i name my body proximity / i name my body full of hope despite everything.”

I love her idea that we might give playful names and titles and descriptors to our bodies. In alignment with current astrological omens, I propose that you do just that. It’s time to take your relationship with your beautiful organism to a higher level. How about if you call it “Exciting Love River” or “Perfectly Imperfect Thrill” or “Amazing Maze”? Have fun dreaming up further possibilities!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The English language, my native tongue, doesn’t ascribe genders to its nouns. But many languages do. In Spanish, the word for “bridge” is puente, which is masculine. In German, “bridge” is Brücke, which is feminine. A blogger named Tickettome says this is why Spanish speakers may describe a bridge as strong or sturdy, while German speakers refer to it as elegant or beautiful. I encourage you to meditate on bridges that possess the entire range of qualities, including the Spanish and German notions.

In the coming weeks, you’ll be wise to build new metaphorical bridges, fix bridges that are in disrepair, and extinguish fires on any bridges that are burning.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Académie Française is an organization devoted to preserving the purity and integrity of the French language. One of its ongoing missions is to resist the casual incorporation of English words, which the younger generation of French people is inclined to do. Among anglicisms that don’t have the Académie’s approval: podcast, clickbait, chick-lit, deadline, hashtag, marketing, timelapse, and showrunner. The ban doesn’t stop anyone from using the words, of course, but simply avoids giving them official recognition.

I appreciate the noble intentions of the Académie, but regard its crusade as a losing battle that has minimal impact. In the coming weeks, I advise you to refrain from behavior that resembles the Académie’s. Resist the temptation of quixotic idealism. Be realistic and pragmatic. You Geminis often thrive in environments that welcome idiosyncrasies, improvisation, informality, and experimentation — especially now.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian author Vladimir Mayakovsky wrote a poem about how one morning he went half-mad and conversed with the sun. At first he called the supreme radiance a “lazy clown,” complaining that it just floated through the sky for hours while he, Mayakovsky, toiled diligently at his day job painting posters. Then he dared the sun to come down and have tea with him, which, to his shock, the sun did. The poet was agitated and worried — what if the close approach of the bright deity would prove dangerous? But the visitor turned out to be friendly. They had a pleasant dialog, and in the end the sun promised to provide extra inspiration for Mayakovsky’s future poetry. I invite you to try something equally lyrical and daring, dear Cancerian.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A blogger named Bunny-Gal writes, “I almost completely forgot who I was there for a while. But then I dug a hole and smelled the fresh dirt and now I remember everything and am okay.” I recommend you follow her lead, Leo — even if you haven’t totally lost touch with your essence.

Communing with Mother Earth in the most direct and graphic way to remind you of everything you need to remember: of the wisdom you’ve lost track of and the secrets you’ve hidden too well and the urgent intuitions that are simmering just below the surface of your awareness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I can’t understand the self-help gurus who advise us to relentlessly live in the present moment — to shed all awareness of past and future so as to focus on the eternal NOW. I mean, I appreciate the value of doing such an exercise on occasion for a few moments. I’ve tried it, and

it’s often rejuvenating. But it can also be downright foolish to have no thoughts of yesterday and tomorrow. We need to evaluate how circumstances will evolve, based on our previous experience and future projections. It can be a deadening, depleting act to try to strip ourselves of the rich history we are always embedded in. In any case, Virgo, I advise you to be thoroughly aware of your past and future in the coming days.

To do so will enhance your intelligence and soulfulness in just the right ways to make good decisions.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Psychotherapist and author Clarissa Pinkola Estés poetically refers to the source of our creativity as “the river under the river.” It’s the deep primal energy that “nourishes everything we make”—our “writing, painting, thinking, healing, doing, cooking, talking, smiling.” This river beneath the river doesn’t belong to any of us — is potentially available to all — but if harnessed correctly it works in very personal ways, fueling our unique talents. I bring this to your attention, Libra, because you’re close to gaining abundant new access to the power of the river beneath the river.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In formulating personal goals, Scorpio author Brené Brown urges us to emphasize growth rather than perfection. Trying to improve is a healthier objective than seeking flawless mastery. Bonus perk: This practical approach makes us far less susceptible to shame. We’re not as likely to feel like a failure or give up prematurely on our projects. I heartily endorse this strategy for you right now, Scorpio.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In a letter to Jean Paul Sartre, author Simone de Beauvoir described how she was dealing with a batch of challenging memories: “I’m reliving it street by street, hour by hour, with the mission of neutralizing it, and transforming it into an inoffensive past that I can keep in my heart without either disowning it or suffering from it.”

I LOVE this approach! It’s replete with emotional intelligence.

I recommend it to you now, since it’s high time to wrangle and finagle with parts of your life story that need to be alchemically transformed and redeemed by your love and wisdom.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In one of his poems, Capricorn-born Kenneth Rexroth complains about having “a crooked guide on the twisted path of love.” But in my view, a crooked guide is the best kind. It’s unwise to engage the services of a love accomplice who’s always looking for the simplest, straightest route, or who imagines that intimate togetherness can be nourished with easy, obvious solutions. To cultivate the most interesting intimacy, we need influences that appreciate nuance and complexity — that thrive on navigating the tricky riddles and unpredictable answers. The next eight weeks will be an excellent time for you Capricorns to heed this advice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Aquarian singer Etta James (1938–2012) won six Grammy Awards and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Grammy Hall of Fame, and Blues Hall of Fame. She testified, “Most of the songs I sing have that blues feeling in it. They have that sorry feeling. And I don’t know what I’m sorry about.” Wow! I’m surprised to hear this. Most singers draw on their personal life experience to infuse their singing with authentic emotion. In any case, I urge you to do the opposite of Etta James in the coming weeks. It’s important for the future of your healing that you identify exactly what you’re sorry about.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn,” writes Piscean self-help author John C. Maxwell. His statement is useful, but it harbors a problematic implication.

It suggests that you can experience either winning or learning, but not both — that the only time you learn is when you lose.

I disagree with this presumption. In fact, I think you’re now in a phase when it’s possible and even likely for you to both win and learn. l

he Dell'Arte Inaugural Guild presents Dell’Arte International’s fiveday-and-night outdoor “Baduwa’t Festival: a Gathering of the People”, an invitation to laugh, play and rediscover connection.

About the Baduwa’t Festival: Formerly known as the Mad River Festival, the Baduwa’t Festival is a culmination of performing arts, music, celebration and connectivity, held on the ancestral lands of the Wiyot Tribe. In Soulatluk, the Wiyot language, Baduwa’t is the word for Mad River. The festival name change was approved by Wiyot leaders in Spring 2021 and Dell’Arte is honored to support the work of the Wiyot Tribe to revitalize the language by using the original name of the river for the festival name.

More events are being added to the line-up.

Check out Dell’Arte’s website for updates.
