Creative Frontline from Robert Lundahl and Tracker Ginamarie Rangel Quinone
The 9000 Year History of the Oasis of Mara
Interview with naturalist, biologist, educator, Pat Flanagan. Pat Flanagan is a longtime compadre and friend and informal co-writer. She's a scientist, a botanist, biologist, naturalist and educator, talking about the Ice Age water below the high desert in the area of Joshua Tree and Desert Hot Springs.
Pat tells the story, the only story, the big story of humans and the environment, how people first got here, what they found and why it matters today. “It was my home for so many years as a kid, 3500 California Blvd in Pasadena. a lush environment in the shade of sparkling mountains gradually eclipsed by the dreaded smog. My family would escape for spring break to the desert where similar post war 50s/60s families congregated.
“In light of global heating, I made a Documentary Feature Film about it, the desert , and its ecological and cultural vulnerabilities. It's called Who Are My People?”
In postwar America there were kids everywhere and they congregated too. One such family, the Johansings, who owned a refuge for the traveler, called The 29 Palms Inn, fate had chosen to be the custodians and stewards of a 9000 (THOUSAND) year old refuge, at that time long ago, a rapidly changing landscape inhabited by early Indigenous peoples to the Americas, following the last ice age. It is here, our story begins.
Pat Flanagan. Pat is on the Board of the Morongo Basin Conservation Association, is a veteran environmentalist and activist, and most importantly an educator.
MBCA's mission is to advocate and educate for a healthy desert environment which nurtures wildlands and communities’ rural character, cultural abundance, and economic wellbeing.
She is associated with the Osis of Mara, is a naturalist, and leads tours of the area.

H2O Radio: Following Water Wherever It Leads
If Clothes Could Talk, Would They Talk Dirty?
Coming Clean About Our Wardrobe's Water Footprint and Toxic Legacy
It's been said that "you can know the color of fashion's next season by the color of rivers in China." Fifty percent of global textile manufacturing in the world happens there and packs a mighty punch in terms of water consumption--and pollution. But the growing of fibers and the dyeing of fabrics is only part of the water footprint of textiles. Once a garment comes home with us from the store how much water do we use to wash it? And do we add to its toxic legacy? Is it possible to dress for sustainable success? H2O Radio investigates.

Muckraking Journalism and The Progressive Magazine; Updates on Julian Assange
Featuring Normal Stockwell and Kevin Gosztola
In the first segment, Mickey Huff talks with Norman Stockwell, publisher of The Progressive magazine, founded in 1909. Stockwell discusses the vaunted history of the publication coming out of a golden era of muckraking journalism. We highlight some of that important history as well as address the current state of our so-called free press, coverage of Gaza, as well as stark signs that this election year may bring even more authoritarianism and militarism at home and abroad. We wrap by discussing the upcoming centennial celebration of the founder of The Progressive, “fighting” Bob La Follette, and his progressive presidential bid in 1924.
Later in the program we’re joined once again by journalist Kevin Gosztola, author of Guilty of Journalism, for updates on the Julian Assange extradition case as Day X on his final hearings in the UK are upon us. Gosztola reminds us of the travesty of justice in the case against him and what it portends for press freedoms worldwide.
