Writer, educator, and creator/principal of the late Deep Green Bush-School

My efforts reflect the love for life on Earth.  I've spent my life speaking out against oppression, injustices, colonialism, imperialism, the theft of indigenous land, and the destruction of the natural world (everything that defines civilization). But in this world, anytime you challenge injustice, you become a target.

Shocking Facts About my Wrongful Conviction:
FACT: The only proof of abuse that the court heard pointed to my ex, not to me. I never hurt anyone in my life. It was a wrongful conviction in which the actual abuser was defended and enabled by the State (the biggest abuser of all.) In the absence of a case, the prosecutor lied, relied on collusion with my lawyer, as well as coached witnesses and perjured testimony. My ex terrorized us all at home but I was sent to jail.  HERE is a short start for the undeniable, stunning - and provable facts.

 “Right, you should not have been convicted. There's a lot questionable here...the totality [of the evidence] points to a different narrative."

What is Ecological Intelligence?

Ecological Intelligence means understanding that all of the Earth is sacred, and to live that way.  This was the essence of the Deep Green Bush-School, and it has been the essence of my life's work. Ecological intelligence means understanding that extraction of any kind will never be healthy, will never be healthy for the planet, and will never be healthy for people.

"When people encounter new evidence that contradicts their beliefs, they don't integrate it as they should. Instead, they often reject the evidence or reinterpret it so that it doesn't challenge their worldview."
