We trace how the Mapuche won autonomy in the nineteenth century, lost land to settlers and plantations, and now reclaim territory to rebuild food systems, ceremonies, and health. Nico details police raids, shadowy paramilitary attacks, and the meaning of autonomy without a state.

• Mapuche resistance and lost autonomy after invasion
• Settler expansion and the rise of pine and eucalyptus
• Land recoveries as food, culture, and governance
• Ceremonies and planting as flashpoints for repression
• Health rooted in native forests and water
• Paramilitary violence against families and children
• Autonomy as daily management and local decision‑making

Steve Taylor interviews former Congressman Glenn Poshard about plans to log the Shawnee National Forest. Taylor was on a panel with Poshard at the screening of the documentary, Shawnee Showdown: Keep the Forest Standing which documented protests and legal actions that resulted in a 17 year moratorium on logging in the Southern Illinois forest.

Orin Langelle, GJEP photographer and Steve Taylor, GJEP press secretary talk with WDBX's Glenda Greenhouse about the legacy of Judi Bari. They also discuss the history of the 1990 blockade in the Shawnee National Forest that was part of environmental efforts that led to a 17 year moratorium on logging and parallel efforts in the Redwood forests of Mendocino and Humboldt counties in California. The program was broadcast on Nov. 4 2021.

The future of the Shawnee Forest is discussed in light of recent logging, as well as the film Shawnee Showdown: Keep the Forest Standing by filmmaker Cade Bursell.

This recording starts partway into the interview, and does not bleep a portion of a song sung by Bari as it was on the original WBDX broadcast.
