@culturalfire.bsky.socialThanks to @culturalfire.bsky.social and other Indigenous leaders who welcomed us onto their ancestral territories to witness the world-repairing work they're doing. In a time of Wildfire Crisis, the Karuk and other tribes are showing that a better way of living with fire is possible.
Show PostHere's my most recent reporting from Karuk Territory if you want to learn a bit about what's going on there. I think it's one of the most important and inspiring things happening in fire today. www.boisestatepublicradio.org/environment/...
Show PostSpeaking about the Karuk specifically, he said "they're probably the model, right? They're doing things that most other tribes are not. And I've talked with some of those folks and we'll be having more engagement, but we're not going to suppress our way out of it." That seems big.
Show PostLast week, Chief Brian Fennessy - the inaugural head of the U.S. Wildland Fire Service - gave me more than an hour of his time. Lots of material, but I want to highlight one thing that struck me as esp. significant: he's a cancer survivor, and attributes his disease to his long fire career.
