A cherished coastal preserve is under attack by the campus administration that was appointed last year by Governor DeSantis in the right-wing takeover underway at New College of Florida. The new administration wants to tear down this small tree preserve, home to Osprey and other wildlife, supposedly for a sports facility. Local resistance has been building to resist the "development" project at Bayfront Uplands Preserve. In our latest, Scott talks with local organizer Jinx Ashforth about the right wing take over of New College of Florida, and the fight over the Uplands Preserve. Bio// Jinx Ashforth (2001-2005) is the author/artist of New College's first graphic novel thesis, and is currently creating a new one on the effects of the Takeover on our unique community. Jinx also has been involved in the Save New College campaign and the Save Uplands campaign (@SaveUplands). -------------------------------------- Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by Moody Links// +Save New College: https://savenewcollege.org/ +IGD: The Fight for Trees (and Against Fascism) at New College Florida (https://bit.ly/3W879ln) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/ev5xKJer) Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ Our Networks// +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ +We're part of the Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork +Listen to us on WAMF (90.3 FM) in New Orleans (https://wamf.org/) This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.
