Editor: My visceral reactions to the story about two horses with broken legs after participating in the “Outlaw Rodeo” were first rage and then grief. When will the people of Humboldt County and the officials of Humboldt County (the so-called overseers of county-owned property like the Humboldt County Fairgrounds) have had their fill of torturing and killing horses at the fair?

I didn’t know him well. Though we both volunteered at KHSU. He, folk music. Me, poetry. And some might think this would be enough to bond. But it wasn’t. And it didn’t. Until I learned we both loved Italy. Especially Rome. He, Trastevere. Me, with only two short stays in hotels downtown and once in a short-term rental on the opposite side of the city. But the subways were great. As were the buses. And there was plenty to see. Everywhere. It was deep, old and overwhelming As was our last meeting in the hospital parking lot. He, coming out. Me, going in. And though I looked familiar, he didn’t remember my name. But who does? And who really cares? I could see the recognition on his face. Older. Deeper. And overwhelming. But I won’t be at his memorial service. Though I did get an invitation. Because I went to the estate sale, asked if there would be one and was handed a signup sheet. Which I signed. And when the invitation arrived, I promptly forwarded it to everyone I knew who had known Brooks, knowing that many did. He was loved, valued and now missed. But I didn’t know the event was only for those who knew him well. And like I said I didn’t know him well. But had we met in la citta on Via Veneto or the Borghese or even in the Vatican, I think we would have had fun together and grown even closer than we were. — Vincent Peloso

County Fair, should we not expect, at the least, a positive cultural experience? Events endangering animals such as an “outlaw rodeo” are a polar opposite of a cultural benefit. (See the Los Angeles Times article entitled “California Rodeo Animals Face Violent and Deadly casualties: Broken backs, legs and skulls,” Susanne Rust, Dec. 7, 2022.) I hope and believe that the people of Humboldt County who are willing and complicit in using horses for dangerous spectacle (have you seen the condition of the track and horse facilities there?) are a minority. The trouble is that this minority apparently is in charge of things. What could possibly go wrong with an event involving horses ridiculously entitled “outlaw rodeo?” Have these organizers of such an event learned nothing in 100 years? Even the movie industry gave up endangering animals almost 50 years ago. Contact your county supervisor and make your thoughts and feelings known. Help stop the misuse and endangerment of horses and other animals on the Humboldt County Fairgrounds. Tell your county supervisor to work on a plan to require that the Fair Board meet much higher standards for any events involving animals. Karen Burkhardt, Eureka

Civilian Oversight Needed

We should not wait until there is an accidental shooting or a massive lawsuit to create a civilian review board. This work should not be done when we are in crisis, but with care and attention to develop a board and get exceptional community leaders to serve on the board. Maxwell Schnurer, Eureka

Worthy Read Editor: Our representative in the U.S. Congress, Jared Huffman, has just released a vitally important new book: No Prophets: The Fight to Save Democracy from Christian Nationalism. Remember Project 2025? It is happening right now. Huffman’s book clearly explains this vastly underappreciated threat that is facing our nation. I hope that this book will be very widely read and discussed. Brian Julian, Blue Lake

Editor: Humboldt needs a sheriff’s civilian review board. California law provides for the right for all communities to have robust civilian review boards for their sheriff’s department. The Sheriff’s Office has broad-based power over the jail, law enforcement, coroner’s office, animal control and drug task forces, employs almost 350 people, and is a part of every inter-agency response to emergencies in our rural community. With ICE raids across the country, discussions about law enforcement misconduct, lack of trust in such a vital organization harms the safety in our community. We have almost no knowledge about the operating practices, budget, and no ability as a community to peek behind the curtain to see how the Sheriff’s Office operates. This has nothing to do with the current sheriff, despite bizarre claims of riots of poor people or buses of Antifa. Humboldt should have a real civilian review board to have external feedback and oversight of the Sheriff’s Office. Civilian review boards have increased confidence in law enforcement, contributed to best practices and reduced costs. A civilian review board with subpoena power, an independent inspector and non-law enforcement oversight can positively impact the sheriff’s department and make our community more safe. northcoastjournal.com • Thursday, Aug. 27, 2026 • NORTH COAST JOURNAL 5

Code of Conduct As the grand jury takes a pass, supervisors make changes to the board’s complaint process By Kimberly Wear kim@northcoastjournal.com

402 2nd Street • Corner of 2nd & E, Old Town, Eureka • 445-1344

T

he next time a complaint is raised against a member of the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors, the process will play out differently behind the scenes and in the public arena under a series of “substantial policy changes” approved last week. Gone from the board’s Code of Conduct section on complaints is the initial review by a three-member committee made up of senior staff — the county administrative officer, the human resources director and county counsel. Instead, the decision-making reins on whether an investigation should be initiated are being handed over to an outside arbitrator contracted by the county, which would then conduct the probe. Also replaced is the former provision that any ensuing sustained findings of a code violation automatically be placed as an action item before the board to consider whether to censure their colleague on dais, who was also given an opportunity to speak to the matter. Now an investigation summary will appear on the consent agenda for supervisors to simply accept and file the report, if that’s what they decide. Essentially a public reprimand by fellow board members in a symbolic gesture, a censure could still happen. But, instead of by default, an individual supervisor would need to take it upon themselves to ask for its inclusion as a separate item for consideration at the same meeting — or a future one. Other amendments include clarifying that “a board member who is the subject of an allegation will make their own determinations as to whether to recuse themselves from participating in any board action directly related to the complaint or investigation,” according to the staff report. An addition to the document also allows the option of mediation between the involved parties, which the county will pay for if “the complainant and the involved board member agree, providing an opportunity for informal conflict resolution where appropriate,” the report states. How this all came about is a bit of a long story. The situation began to unfold late last year, when Supervisor Michelle Bushnell challenged

6 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 27, 2026 • northcoastjournal.com

the policy put in place by the current board (herself included) in 2022. Her challenge came after an outside investigation sustained allegations she acted in a hostile manner toward two employees. Bushnell argued through an attorney that she was denied due process in a flawed system, albeit one she’d approved three years previously. While Bushnell was censured in a 4-0 vote on Nov. 4, the board majority took the additional step of asking the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury to not only review Bushnell’s conduct but also make recommendations on potential changes to the procedures under dispute. At the time, Supervisor Steve Madrone said a referral to the government watchdog body was “the most transparent and appropriate way to address” her concerns. The topic came back up in March when county staff returned to the board to ask for direction on how to handle any new or pending complaints while waiting to see if the grand jury would weigh in. During those discussions, Bushnell advocated for forming an ad hoc committee, noting the code of conduct was the board’s policy and they could make changes on their own since any grand jury response could be a way down the road, adding that if any recommendations come in, those could also be incorporated. Bushnell and Madrone were then selected to take on the task along with the senior staff panel outlined in the code, setting the policy down two separate paths of review. The referral to the grand jury, however, hit a dead end — at least for now — in June, when the window for the civic oversight panel to issue a report on the matter closed shut. The reason why will never be known due to the cloak of confidentiality surrounding all the panel’s proceedings. “Each civil grand jury decides for itself what it will study and what reports it will issue,” Humboldt Chapter of the Civil Grand Jurors’ Association of California President Victoria Joyce wrote in an email to the Journal earlier this month. “All decisions are made by a supermajority vote, which in Humboldt County means at

least 12 of the 19 jurors agree to an action,” she continued. “The board of supervisors may request a study or investigation, but it is only a request. They cannot order the civil grand jury to do anything. The civil grand jury is an arm of the superior court, not a county department.” And, Joyce added, “The outgoing civil grand jury can leave notes for the incoming grand jury, but the incoming jury would have to decide for itself if it wanted to pursue the issue and would have to open a brand-new investigation. And we will never know unless they choose to issue a report.” With no report issued this past session, the board was left with the review by the ad hoc committee, which wrapped up its work earlier this month, resulting in the item before the board on Aug. 18. Then came a slight twist. At the onset of the discussion, County Administrative Officer Elishia Hayes informed the board that Madrone, who was absent due to illness, communicated to her the evening prior that he was “withdrawing his support for the policy in the current form.” But, she added, the Fifth District representative also believed “it was appropriate for the item to move forward and for your board to provide feedback on the content as it is presented today.” Bushnell, who was on the committee with Madrone, said the news came as “a bit of shock” and offered a couple of avenues for the board to consider, including reconvening the ad hoc or just staying with the policy that was on the books. In the end, the board decided to move forward, with much of the conversation centered on the change of giving an outside counsel “sole discretion” in deciding whether complaints should move into an investigation phase — and the ensuing costs. Supervisor Natalie Arroyo brought up that members of the board are sometimes targets of people who are “bad actors” or “unwell,” at one point offering the example “that right now there is someone actively saying I’m actively killing kids, I’m obviously not actively killing children.” She asked whether there was a way to incorporate some kind of “reality checkpoint” to limit the referral avenue and the potential bills involved. “I don’t want to have this result in superfluous or absurd or excessive complaints that we are then required to have outside counsel evaluate, even if it’s only a half hour of their time,” she said. “A few hundred dollars an hour, that adds up.” Supervisor Rex Bohn, who himself faced censure in March for an interaction with staff but the item fell short of the votes needed to take the action, said he believes the process is “used more as a weapon than as a tool and I would like to see this be used as a tool rather than a weapon.” “Do I say inappropriate things? Hell yes. Do I

say things that shouldn’t be said? But I’ve been saying them for 65 years, since I was 7 years old, so I apologize for that,” he said. “I didn’t change who I was. Am I offensive? Am I vile toward people? I don’t believe so. I think that’s been proven over and over again, but it doesn’t stop anybody from trying to create a situation. I don’t think we should be targets up here because we are servants of the community.” He also questioned whether the board could look at policies from other counties rather than “reinvent the wheel” and floated the idea of using a “screening committee.” While saying that he was going to vote for the changes as presented, Bohn noted, “I don’t like to lose local control on anything” and “it’s not going to be cheap.” In response to some of those concerns raised, Bushnell said she believes the revisions to the code of conduct provide “many, many upgrades that make it more equitable than it was,” including relieving staff who work directly for the supervisors from the “sticky situation” of reviewing complaints. “It’s pretty obvious if somebody says Natalie’s killing babies that that’s not happening and if there was a complaint filed to that, I think they would spend one second on it and say, ‘No,’” Bushnell said, referring to the outside counsel. Along similar lines, Hayes expressed support for the changes. “I think that the current construct is a good path forward and I similarly feel the outside counsel is going to be very reasonable in making their assertions of whether or not something should move forward, or not move forward, and whether it should be formal or informal,” she said. She added that she was “comfortable in making some judgment calls” and believes the evaluations conducted by staff were “very fair.” “That said, I can also say that nine times out of 10 you all don’t necessarily like the process as it’s unfolded and so that does put us in a sticky situation,” Hayes continued. “And I think we all know there’s been times when it’s been one board member complaining against another which, in the old words of [former CEO] Phil Smith-Hanes, ‘Never put yourself between two elected officials.’ So that can get particularly sticky for us, as well.” As the board was preparing to vote, board Chair Mike Wilson added one last comment. “Just to close, the best way to limit our exposure to these expenses is to try and conduct ourselves in a way that is in accordance with the code of conduct.” “I’ll try my best,” Bohn replied, adding a “yes” to passing the changes. The board approved the revisions 4-0, with Madrone absent. l

Forest Fires Follow Roads. The Trump Administration Wants to Build More By Rachel Becker/CalMatters newsroom@northcoastjournal.com This story was originally published by CalMatters.

T

he Trump administration announced earlier this month it is rolling back a rule prohibiting logging and road construction in undeveloped parts of national forests, including more than 4 million acres of federally managed forest lands in California. The change could open some of California’s most remote backcountry to new roads and development — even as U.S. Forest Service research shows that roads are a major source of wildfire ignitions in the state’s national forests. People start most of California’s wildfires, including on federal land — and it’s not just sparks from faulty power lines. Fires can start in many ways: A hiker might burn toilet paper in the backcountry, a hot tub might be miswired, or someone might drag a tow chain or pull a hot car onto dry grass. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, who first announced the plan last year, said Aug. 18 that federal officials filed a proposal and environmental impact statement to rescind the rule in order to reduce barriers to managing fuels on public lands. “For too long, outdated restrictions have kept tens of millions of forested acres off-limits to the very treatments that improve forest health and reduce wildfire risk to our communities,” Rollins said in a statement. But in California, the U.S. Forest Service’s own research points to a complication: Roads and the people who travel on them are known conduits for fire. Scientists with the U.S. Forest Service mapped 26 years of fire ignitions along roughly 850 miles of roads in the Angeles, San Bernardino, Los Padres and Cleveland national forests. All of them, according to a Forest Service map, also contain roadless reaches.

8 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 27, 2026 • northcoastjournal.com

The mapping effort revealed that nearly two-thirds of the fires people caused in these forests sparked along roadsides — places where people, the sparks they create and fuel in the form of flammable, invasive grasses often converge. California Natural Resources Secretary Wade Crowfoot said that the roadless rule has not hindered California’s forest management and prescribed fire efforts. “In fact, more than 240,000 acres of roadless land in California have undergone vegetation treatments to reduce wildfire risk and protect nearby communities,” Crowfoot said in a letter to Rollins last September. He cited an example in the Caples Creek roadless area south of Lake Tahoe, which he said helped shield communities during the 2021 Caldor Fire. Crowfoot warned that opening these areas to construction, timber harvests and mining “may put rural communities at increased risk of fire and significantly increase firefighting costs of California.”

A National Pattern It’s not just California. A recent, peer-reviewed study by scientists with The Wilderness Society reported earlier this year that wildfire ignitions in national forests across the country are four times more likely near roads. From 1992 to 2024, wildfire ignition densities were lowest in designated wilderness areas, followed by roadless areas. They were highest within 50 meters of roads. “Opening our backcountry forests to more roads and development, and therefore more ignitions, is also not a wildfire solution, and never will be,” Josh Hicks, The Wilderness Society’s director of conservation campaigns, said in a statement. The Trump administration said rescinding the rule doesn’t automatically mandate timber harvests or building roads. Instead, it would leave decisions to local national forest managers.

“Future land management decisions would be based on natural resource conditions and needs and informed by states, tribes, and communities,” the Agriculture Department’s announcement said today.

Why more roads? Environmental advocates are skeptical, especially in light of the Trump administration’s executive order last year calling for an “immediate expansion of American timber production.” The roadless rule also already allows for roads to be constructed or rebuilt to protect health and safety from the threat of wildfire. Retired U.S. Forest Service chiefs, including one who served during the first Trump administration, said in an opinion piece last year that repealing the rule threatens key watersheds and wildlife. “Why build more roads when the agency, strapped for resources, can’t even maintain the ones that already exist?” they asked. “Let’s not forget the reasons these backcountry areas do not have roads. The easily accessible high-value timber from national forests has been harvested. What little that remains in these roadless backcountry areas is difficult and costly to access.” North Coast Congressmember Jared Huffman, ranking member of the House Natural Resources Committee, blasted the Trump administration for moving forward on rescinding the rule during a catastrophic fire season following the Trump administration’s slashing of the U.S. Forest Service. He vowed to fight it in Congress. “The Trump administration is at again, selling out our public lands to corporate polluters, ignoring the overwhelming objections of the American people,” Huffman said in a statement. He added: “It’s reckless.” The public has until midnight on Sept. 21 to comment. l

Corkscrew Trees and a Crooked Trail Along the newly opened ‘O Rew Redwoods Gateway By Mark Larson newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

P

erfect weather on Aug. 1 and a desire to be among the first to walk the newly opened Crooked Trail brought my wife and me to the adjacent and newly open-tothe-public ‘O Rew Redwoods Gateway — a 125-acre Yurok Tribe-owned and managed preserve just north of Orick. The new entry gate read, “Welcome to ‘O Rew Yurok Country, Southern Gateway to Redwood National and State Parks.” We love to walk on trails we’ve never been on before but this was even better — we’d be among the first visitors to round the ‘O Rew Redwoods Gateway and then walk on the Crooked Trail uphill in old-growth redwood forest to the

intersection with the Berry Glen Trail that goes on up to the Lady Bird Johnson Grove Trail loop. After we entered the Redwoods Gateway’s expansive parking lot with nearby restroom and picnic area, we stopped first at the Gathering Place, with its central information kiosk that resembles a traditional Yurok house. Nearby are also new interpretation story signs, benches and Yurok traditional stools. We looked over a wide expanse of restored Redwood Creek bottom land that contrasted greatly from what used to be a former lumber mill and then later covered with the piles of concrete and asphalt after the Yurok Tribe began this restoration project. Prairie Creek used to

be basically a ditch along U.S. Highway 101 and the restoration has now created the meandering creek and ponds for fish habitat away from the highway. The Save the Redwoods League purchased the site in 2013 for $2 million and, after a decade of intensive restoration in partnership with the Yurok Tribe, officially transferred ownership to the tribe a few days before we visited. The Yurok Tribe website now describes this 125-acre property within Yurok ancestral homelands as “a place long nurtured and stewarded by Yurok people as both a cultural and ecological resource site. Over the past century, the land was altered by ranching, logging and sawmill operations. Following extensive

restoration, the landscape has been revitalized and its natural ecological functions restored.” The restoration work done by the Yurok Tribe included removing 21 acres of asphalt, realigning a mile of Prairie Creek and connecting it to its flood plain to create refuge habitat and feeding areas for young salmon and steelhead, and then planting over 400,000 native plants to rebuild biodiversity and support wildlife habitat. On any given day, you’re now likely to see elk wandering through the area or a California condor flying overhead. During our visit, a large turkey vulture flew overhead, and we saw lots of scat evidence of elk and deer. Continued on next page »

Joseph James, Yurok Tribe chairman, is quoted on the tribe’s website as saying, “We created a new model of conservation that centers Indigenous land stewardship. It’s a blueprint for returning Tribal lands and restoring fractured ecosystems worldwide.” As we hiked the trails, we stopped

with bar codes to scan to hear their pronunciations. We next walked from the Gathering Place on a wide, curving, paved accessible trail a short distance to the Outdoor Classroom area. It overlooks the expansive restored Prairie Creek area and features more audio story signs, benches and a beautiful mural. To the left of the Outdoor Classroom area is the unpaved Yey-goh Laas (“Trail that keeps going around”) that goes past several small Salmon Run interpretive signs and out through restoration areas, where planting is still underway. This trail becomes the unpaved Wo-gee Laas (“Trail in the middle”) and brought us back to the parking lot and Gathering Place. The future location of the Cultural Visitor Center will be to the northeast of the Gathering Place (estimated to be completed in five years). By the time we returned to the Gathering Place, three employees from the Yurok Tribe Cultural Resources Department had set up an informational tent to welcome visitors and share the project’s history. We next headed north for about a half mile from the Gathering Place to the trailhead for the Ker-kur’-yer-mer-cheen Lass (“Crooked Trail”), starting on a paved walking/bicycling section of the California Coastal Trail. You can use either the unpaved ‘O’leh ‘We-lass (“House Trail”) to the future re-created village site and trailhead, or the paved-at-the-start Wo-gee Laas Trail. I recommend using the latter for now, as it features benches with a great view of the

entire Redwoods Gateway area next to the forest. It also takes you past the Walk the Redwood 380 feet interpretative site where you walk next to posts along the trail that show the length of a tall redwood tree. As we neared the trailhead, we met a Redwood National Park interpretive ranger who had just removed the “Closed” sign and welcomed us to be among the first to hike the Crooked Trail. He gave a gentle warning about the uphill walking to the Berry Glen Trail intersection through old-growth redwood forest and encouraged us to watch for the twisting “corkscrew” trees next to the trail about a mile up. Later in an email exchange, Redwood National and State Parks Trails Supervisor Brittney McGuire said, “The goal was to provide a steady grade throughout, since there’s a notable elevation difference from one end of the trail to the other. By moderating the climb, hikers can enjoy views of the old growth redwood forest without getting too winded. We will be adding more gravel to improve the trail surface, providing an even tread for hikers, as the trail surface naturally settles, which also helps to minimize wear on the underlying soil.” McGuire singled out two special features of this trail. “When hikers descend the hillside through the old growth forest, you will get a unique perspective looking out and down at different layers of the forest canopy. A corkscrew tree is also easy to spot as Continued on next page »

Tall old-growth redwood trees make a strong first impression at the trailhead for the newly opened Crooked Trail. you descend through the forest.” The trailhead sign on the newly opened uphill Crooked Trail says it’s 2.69 miles to the Berry Glenn Trail and then about 0.6 mile on it to the Lady Bird Johnson Grove Trail with 1,204 feet of elevation gain. The Crooked Trail does live up to its name as I counted 15 switchbacks before we reached its intersection with the Berry Glen Trail (after approximately 2 miles). The trail winds

through large and very tall old-growth redwoods at the start of the trail with lots of ferns as understory. We’re both fit seniors and it took us 40 minutes of steady walking to complete our hike up to the intersection with the Berry Glen Trail, including a few rest and hydration stops. As you go up the trail, you’ll find the first sitting bench at the seventh switchback (count them as you go up from

the trailhead) and then another bench at the ninth switchback. Next you will see the short loop trail option (featuring an interesting candelabra tree) to the west. There’s a small, short bridge after switchback No. 10, and after switchback No. 12, the trail features much longer, flatter sections with less elevation gain as you near the ridge top and the Berry Glen Trail intersection. As mentioned earlier, after about a mile going up the trail, look for the interesting corkscrew redwood trees on the left just past a large redwood log that overhangs the trail. After about five switchbacks up the trail, we also happened to meet Mary Burke (a candidate for 5th District supervisor) and her friends coming down the trail celebrating the opening of the trail. Burke worked for 10 years as the Cal Trout restoration project manager for the Redwoods Gateway project with the Yurok Tribe. She said this was her first time to walk on the completed and “aptly named” Crooked Trail. She also had an excellent suggestion for anyone wanting to avoid the steep uphill-and-backdown hike on the Crooked Trail: Do a twocar shuttle with friends starting by leaving one vehicle at the Gateway parking lot, drive up Bald Hills Road and, after parking at the Lady Bird Johnson Grove Trail parking lot, walk the flat Lady Bird Johnson Grove Trail to the Berry Glen Trailhead. From there, walk downhill on the Berry Glen Trail to the Crooked Trail intersection on the left and downhill to your shuttle vehicle at the Redwoods Gateway parking lot.

My wife and I enjoyed a short break at the Crooked Trail and Berry Glen intersection, saving the remaining walk up to the Lady Bird Johnson Grove Trail for another time. Our downhill walk back to where we started on the Crooked Trail, including doing the short loop, took us about 30 minutes with only a few rest stops. “Redwood National Park is very excited to support the Yurok Tribe and the Save the Redwoods League in their momentous decision to transfer ownership of ‘O Rew back to the original stewards of the land,” said McGuire. “The park works closely with both groups and supports the restoration that’s already taken place and the long-term vision for the site.” The ‘O Rew Redwoods Gate is located off Bald Hills Road just north of Orick a short distance from U.S. Highway 101. For more information, visit yuroktribe.org/orew. No restroom or water available on the Crooked Trail; restroom and picnic area are only at the Gathering Place. Entrance gate is closed to vehicles sunset to sunrise. Wear good hiking shoes and layers of clothing, in case of fog or rain, and let someone know your hiking plans. Do not approach the elk.

urnstitch Collective has been attached to many of the murmurs I hear about simple and great ideas around here, and I am going long this week to write about them because it’s both overdue and perfectly timely. They are putting on an all-ages DIY punk festival called Against All Odds at RampArt Skate Park this Saturday, so I emailed its director Ridley Landau, who plainly laid out its true scope. “The name Against All Odds is a call to persevere in the face of hopelessness,” she wrote. “This fest is a way of connecting transition-age-youths (16-25) with resources they need to safely enter adulthood. The music just gets them to the event, where local organizations will be offering free assistance with job training, medical care, housing, nutrition and mental health resources. There will also be several alternative art vendors and crafting stations.” Putting on an all-ages festival is no easy feat in any circumstance but doing it with a positive ethos and attention to community in the age of Trump — a mafia era defined by septic grifters dismantling society for billionaire Nazi perverts — seems impossible. Doing so under the umbrella of a small collective named and designed around the eternal concept of rebuilding after catastrophe seems a step further into the abyss. Thankfully, there are others who are far more pragmatic and grounded than myself. Landau is such a person, someone who articulates the troubles of the past with an emphasis on the future. “The most important thing for me personally is to be the kind of adult that I needed when I was young” she wrote. “I had so many friends growing up who are not alive today because their circumstances made living impossible. They fell into depression, isolation, addiction, poverty, houselessness. And it’s heartbreaking to see so many kids today in Humboldt facing the same challenges. I want to instill a sense of agency and encourage young people to create a world they actually want to live in.” This notion resonates with what first compelled me to write about the collective and Against All Odds to begin with. Although I have reported on Burnstitch gigs in the past, what really caught my attention in the last year was a series of shows called “Safety Meetings,” which had an emphasis on inclusivity and de-escalation to prevent bigotry or violence from infecting the scene. As someone who first went to punk shows as a

child in the ’90s, I know this approach is both desperately needed and historically tough to pull off. Landau’s explanation behind the movement was clear and direct: “Punk scenes are notoriously full of gatekeepers who think they can determine who is ‘punk enough’ to be included. It’s really just a form of bullying. That being said, I believe we have a duty to protect vulnerable young people in these spaces. It’s not right to invite queer and BIPOC teens, while also allowing predators, racists and homophobes.” There it is. Loud music is often mistaken as a channel through which one can lose all accountability and feast on an orgy of violence that only ever favors the most atavistically strong and brutally careless. For the worst among us, the amplification of sound means a similar expansion of the stupid cruelty that enforces the primal violence that defines the shrinking frontiers of our vicious society. Pantomimes of the globetrotting American killing floor that we all know exists but pretend doesn’t for fear of getting caught, slit and bled out in a gushing red trough that is never filled. That is not what heavy music is about. We speak and shriek of these horrors to expose them, because the first step towards victory and emancipation is identifying the enemy. We protect the tender beauty of our dreams just as we care for each other, we try to stay united in that care, against all odds. Take care of each other this week; make everything a little more favorable.

Thursday The Rumba Madre may have started in Nashville, but the group is anything but another commercial country beerfart. The fellas play a hodge podge of punk, cumbia, reggaeton and dirty South trap bangers with a fluid beauty that must be heard to be understood. Returning to HumCo after not too long from their last show is a wise move, too, and with the students back in town, it’s a perfect night for any members of the youth of today to enjoy a fantastic show. Pile on local openers Brain Dead Rejects, Something Wicked and Lovefest, and you have something transformative for the all-ages crowd who choose the good path and roll through Moss Oak Commons tonight at 6 p.m. ($10).

Friday Being that this is the last full moon of the summer of 2026, I am going to suggest some-

in this column and there’s a fair chance that Breaking Marble Jars may one day enter the pantheon as well. Come through at 8 p.m. with $5-$10 for the door to see what I mean.

thing put on by Playhouse Arts that has all the makings of a perfect Arcata experience. Come to Carlson Park at 8 p.m. and meet up with the good folks behind IllumiNature, a guided immersive adventure full of theater, puppetry, live music and more. Free to all comers, this late-summer lantern-lit delight is a chance for the people behind the Arcata Playhouse to celebrate its 20 years with our community in the open environment of our community, under the twilight gateway to the Milky Way.

Saturday As I mentioned above, today is the day for Against All Odds at RampArt Skate Park from 3 to 10 p.m. Here’s the simple rundown: This is an all-ages event that only costs $10 and is free for kids 12 and under who are accompanied by an adult, and that adult or any other with a valid I.D. can enjoy adult beverages provided by Humboldt Roller Derby. There will be community resources and information available from the non-profit and mutual aid groups HACHR, Youth Ability, Black Humboldt, Queer Humboldt, Building Bridges, Centro del Pueblo, Our Space and AHHA. There will be scads of art vendors as well, but most germane to this live music column, there will be a ton of rad bands, who I will list in full now. The road runners today will be Buffed from Maryland, Reno’s Reeking Slug, and then some Lake County and Oakland/ Bay Area/Vallejo bands I will run down in order of provenance. ARPH, Braintooth, Scam Likely, Canaille, Ratfuck and Blood Compact, who are celebrating their one-year anniversary as a band by playing on our home turf, which is the furthest they have played from their own home so far. Speaking of home turf, we have some mighty locals

in the line-up too. Executive Order, Brain Dead Rejects — a personal favorite on the strength of their newest recordings — and Radical A.P.E. Viva.

Sunday MaMuse is a folk and soul revival act that began as a collaboration between musicians Sarah Nutting and Karisha Longaker in the deep end of 20 years ago in the rambling corridors of our home state that are leafier than they are paved. The two have since grown to a quartet, and are currently touring on their seventh album This is the Venue, which was released last week and is available on Bandcamp and elsewhere. If you are unfamiliar with the group and are looking for some harmonic healing via the airflow and vibrations that meet between the human voice and acoustic instruments when they are pushed to the same poetic purpose, come over to the Arcata Theatre Lounge at 6 p.m. It’s a seated type of show and, depending on your devotion to a VIP spot for the experience, tickets will run you from $45 to $65.

Monday It’s not every day around here you get the chance to check out a retro punk and garage band from Paris, and almost never on a Monday. But this is the last Monday of August, and things get a little weird in these parts when the locals brace themselves into a phalanx to handle the annual student invasion. Dérapage is the band, and the Siren’s Song Tavern is the place, and the bill is stacked with the perfect local bands to make this into a proper rock and roll crash-out needed to handle transition. Clean Girl and the Dirty Dishes are absolute trash heroes

Taco Tuesday at Richards’ Goat is always a safe bet for a good time, but there’s really nothing finer than when the attached Miniplex has an early show to enjoy for after. Tonight has Norwegian-born, Berlin-based duo Soft as Snow, who take the format of DJ and MC and turn it into something else entirely different and quite unexpected. I really think you should go into this one blind and allow yourself to taste some of the fruits of a society that invests in its arts without creative limitations. DPSD is the solo project of Los Angeles sound collagist Danny Perez, who is really completing a perfect circle of angelic oddness with his presence. Try not to miss this one. It’s at 7 p.m. and is only $10. And the tacos start cooking not long after the 5 p.m. opening time.

Wednesday I have read a lot of film reviews over the years, and one of my favorites more or less started with the line “Relax, it’s just another Ken Russell movie.” I probably fucked that line up, but it doesn’t matter because I can’t

remember the author and Russell has been dead for 15 years. But the message remains evergreen because Russell made films that upset a lot of people, from his native England and beyond. Try finding a copy of his masterpiece The Devils and you will see what I mean. I have written before about my appreciation for truly transgressive cinema, and he is on the shortlist of filmmakers I always reference in that regard. However, I don’t usually celebrate videos that are nasty for no reason, and while I don’t need a purpose, some presence of mind is required. In that spirit, one of my favorite flicks is Altered States, a vehicle for a young William Hurt from 1980 that uses bespoke psychedelic imagery, updated Universal Monster action and a dull academic backdrop to create a spectacle that forces everyone on both sides of the screen to choose the tender truth of love to serve as a desperate lifeline to draw us from the horrendous void of nihilism that surrounds the evolution of all conscious beings. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Head over to the Arcata Theatre Lounge between 6 and 7 p.m., pay $6 to get in or $10 to leave with a poster, and figure it out for yourself. l

Tony Makes Me Hungry By Sasha Senal

screens@northcoastjournal.com

TONY. “The movie is about growing out of your childhood nickname and becoming who you’re supposed to be,” director Matt Johnson told CNN about his recent feature, Tony. Anthony Bourdain needs little introduction, but if a person were to go into this film with little understanding of Bourdain’s career and legacy, I imagine they’d leave with a smile, charmed by a story about a spunky kid’s stumble into his own destiny. The film is based on three summers, with details spanning the ages of 15 to 25, as described in Bourdain’s memoir Kitchen Confidential. Johnson and his collaborators attempt to capture a time in Bourdain’s youth where perceived passions and desires transform into an entirely unexpected and soulful flavor, but is the story watered down? In the same CNN interview, actor Dominic Sessa, who stars as the icon, describes that he created a version of Bourdain based on stories, photos and his own New Jersey upbringing. He didn’t have to be Bourdain because he was capturing a time in his life fewer people know about — humble beginnings that serve as fertile ground for the film’s development. And humble they are, as we see Tony time and time again humbled into accepting himself as a canvas for life experience. At first the story is guided by Tony’s desire to be a writer and get with Nancy. This pursuit takes him to the laid-back, maritime village of Provincetown, Massachusetts, where he finds himself low on cash, dejected and sleeping in the gutter. On the good faith of a local chef, he is given a hammock in which to sleep in exchange for work. Here he finds dirty dishes, drugs and an exhilarating community, but when faced with the consequences of his own immaturity, he realizes what he was ultimately seeking was in the kitchen. He falls in love with the art of cooking and takes responsibility for his future. Beat beet beat. Summer hit. The film’s setting made many nods to the color and culture of 1975 with pinstripe suit

pants and Brian Eno in tow, though at times the film feels very contemporary and noncommittal in its established setting with costumes appearing Me, a culinary genius, explaining how I place a slice of fried bologna on my instant ramen. costume-y and Tony dialogue sounding and (checks notes) yup, Rowling is still a poiabout the story was mostly the unexceplike anyplace.

FIELD NOTES

An Etruscan Venus and the Patriarchy By Barry Evans fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com

“Patriarchy has tried to erase imagery of the feminine since time immemorial. Destroy the image and you can control the narrative.” — Syreeta McFadden, The Guardian U.S., April 13, 2015

A

lmost life-sized, the “Venus of Cannicella” looks out at us from behind her protective transparent cylinder in an archeological museum in the town of Orvieto, Umbria, Italy. Dated to around 500 BC, and found in 1884 in a neighboring Etruscan necropolis, she’s an anomaly in several ways. For instance, unlike virtually all other surviving statues found in ancient Etrusca, she’s made of marble — in this case, from the Greek island of Paros. And she’s probably a representation of the Etruscan goddess Vei, equivalent to Demeter, Greek goddess of fertility. What’s a statue representing new life doing in a cemetery? Answer: Anthropologists believe the Etruscans viewed death as an extension of life. But the oddest detail is that she has a vulva. Odd, because the ancient Greeks, and later the Romans, de-sexed women when representing them in statues and frescos. Naked men had penises; naked women were Barbie-smooth. Why? You don’t have to be an arch feminist to appreciate that, in the words of English professor Syreeta McFadden, quoted above, “somewhere along the line, the vulva became synonymous with the obscene. As ancient Greek society … developed, feminine power and, by extension, the vulva, was denigrated.” Turns out that the “Venus of Cannicella” is a rare surviving Greek statue (that somehow ended up in an Etruscan graveyard) from a time before the full patriarchal shift had happened in Athens. Show me a Greek Classical Age writer and I’ll show you a misogynist bro. As it happens, Etruscan women enjoyed much more freedom than their Greek and Roman counterparts. They could, for instance, own property, learn to read and write, and go out unaccompanied in public. Greek historian Theopompus, writing in

This 2,500-year-old marble statue, probably Greek, was unearthed in an Etruscan necropolis in Italy. She’s notable for having a vulva. Photo by Barry Evans the 4th century BC, sniffed that Tyrrhenian (Etruscan) women “often exercise even with men, sometimes also with one another, because it is not shameful for women to show themselves naked …. They also like to drink a lot and are very good-looking.” The name “Etruscan” probably derives from the hypothesized Proto-Indo-European root “turs,” meaning “tower.” The Tusci, or Etruscans, typically built their towns on high buttes with vertical walls (like Orvieto). As you’re reading this, making sense of squiggles on paper or a screen, give a nod of thanks to those long-ago people who gave us our alphabet. The ancient Greek alphabet (ultimately derived from Phoenician (“The Invention of the Alphabet,” Nov. 12 and 19, 2009) came to present-day Italy in a variant known as Euboean. In what is now Umbria and Tuscany, Euboean morphed into Etruscan, which the nascent Roman civilization adopted in the 7th century BC, thus the Latin alphabet. That is, essentially, our alphabet. We’re long on hypotheses, short on hard facts about the Etruscans, history being written by the victors. As the Roman Republic grew into a superpower, the original 12 Etruscan strongholds fell one by one. Volsinii, present-day Orvieto, surrendered in 280 BC after a two-year siege. Today, little remains of the town’s Etruscan legacy other than two cemeteries. It’s ironic that the “Venus of Cannicella,” Orvieto’s most striking archeological find, isn’t Etruscan, but Greek, created at a time when her true-to-life beauty could be shown. l Barry Evans (he/him, barryevans9@ yahoo.com) likes the idea of being paid to write about vulvas (vulvae?). northcoastjournal.com • Thursday, Aug. 27, 2026 • NORTH COAST JOURNAL 23
