In response to: Buffalo Field Campaign — Update from the Field: More than 18% of the Last Wild Herds are Gone  I saw an image of men killing Bison. They killed the Bison for eating the Grass, Grass they’ve taken for grazing their cattle-- sold to an Industry that steals from its growers, bought from an Industry that’s killing the Land. I saw an image of men earning their living, in a way we’ve been taught to admire. I saw an image portraying a lifestyle, the truth of which is rarely discussed. The frame did not capture the Deserts spreading, nor the Oceans dying. It did not echo the Trees falling, nor the Rivers’ silence. It could not show the Earth warming, nor Tomorrow slipping away. I saw an image of men killing Bison. They did not see their own reflections deaden with the Bisons' eyes.  Join email list.
