Many of us on the Left see the fight for environmental justice as going hand-in-hand with other progressive battles, including racial justice and human rights. But, evidently, not all environmentalist efforts are rooted in the same values. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to Abrahm Lustgarten, a reporter for ProPublica, about his recent piece chronicling an ugly, hidden side to the history of the American environmentalist movement. We learn about John Tanton, a virulent racist and eugenicist who befriended many environmental leaders, find out how he’s connected to the perpetrator of the El Paso Wal-Mart mass shooting, Patrick Crusius, and talk about how white supremacy and xenophobia have come to dominate right-wing rhetoric in this country.

From Wikipedia, more or less:
In 1969, Bill Ayers co-founded the Weather Underground, a revolutionary group that sought to overthrow American imperialism.
During the 1970s, the Weather Underground conducted a campaign of bombing public buildings in opposition to U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.
The FBI described the Weather Underground as a domestic terrorist group.
Ayers was hunted as a fugitive for several years, until charges were dropped due to illegal actions by the FBI agents pursuing him and others.
Ayers went on to become a professor in the College of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, holding the titles of Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar.
He is married to lawyer and law professor Bernardine Dohrn, who was also a co-founder of the Weather Underground.

And in the news, ILGA boots Israel’s The Aguda and rejects their bid to hold a future World Conference in Tel Aviv, the Tokyo High Court becomes the second of 8 regional courts to rule for civil marriage equality, more than 1 in 10 Aussie teens identify as sexually and/or gender-variant, rabidly phobic Texas A.G.
