the midst of the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, peace and social justice
forces are concerned about how best to pursue peace in the region. The
U.S. media has been hopelessly one-sided and does not contribute to our

is a Member of the Faculty in Geography and Indigenous Studies at The
Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, and an activist/ scholar
working on issues of ethnic nationhood, militarism, and natural
resources.
