  • Placing the Militia Occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Harney County, Oregon
    Placing the Militia Occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Harney County, Oregon Carolyn Gallaher School of International Service American University [email protected] Abstract This intervention examines the recent militia occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. There is no consensus on how to place the group. Some commentators suggest the group was white supremacist. Others argue that it was animated by religious fanaticism. Still others emphasize the group’s grievances with the Bureau of Land Management. I argue here that the Malheur occupiers’ politics cannot be understood with reference to a single identity position. Rather, we need to focus on the group’s anti-government rhetoric because it funnels and shapes multiple interests at once. Here I examine how the group’s anti-government rhetoric frames race and class interests. In terms of race, I argue that anti-government rhetoric obscures the white interests behind the occupation. This concealment is based on a selective reading of history that emphasizes the end of settlement, when the government took ownership of land not claimed during the settlement period, instead of the stage leading up to it, when the government seized Indigenous land for white settlement. So construed, the occupiers could claim they were taking the ‘people’s’ land back from the government rather than engaging in a second round of white theft of Indigenous land. In terms of class, I argue that because the occupiers framed their fight as against government tyranny instead of as for privatization, the occupiers did not have to confront the inequities that come with privatization.

  • Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
    Arctic National Wildlife Refuge The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge was estab- lished in 1960 to preserve unique wildlife, wilder- ness, and recreational values.1 Congress enlarged the Refuge to 19.6 million acres and designated 8 million acres of the Refuge includ- ing mountains, foothills, and coastal plain as Wil- derness in the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980 (ANILCA).1 Potential Oil and Gas Development Section 1002 of ANILCA required the Secretary of the In- terior to assess the petroleum and wildlife values of a 1.5- million-acre portion of the Arctic Refuge coastal plain often referred to as the 1002 Area.1 ANILCA prohibits oil and gas leasing and production in the 1002 Area unless Con- gress passes legislation to allow development.2 Assess- ments of the 1002 Area indicate that it may contain sub- stantial amounts of oil and gas.2, 3 The assessments also found that the 1002 Area is of vital importance to many wildlife species.2, 3 Importance of the 1002 Area to Wildlife The 1002 Area is an area critical to the abundance and A polar bear (Ursus maritimus) and her cubs at the Arctic National Wildlife diversity of wildlife in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
