As the Anti-Authoritarian People of Color caucuses, reportbacks and statements are becoming more and more present at anti-authoritarian gatherings in the US, there has been more and more very open and forward white supremacy coming from the radical left. Sorry white progressives and white radicals but we (people of color) aren't going to take this shit from you ALL without a fight.

"Any serious discussion of race within our movement must begin with the candid recognition that Earth First! is a predominantly white movement. Following this recognition, a spring of interesting questions will naturally begin to arise from the curious, anti-racist, environmental activist. “Why are people of color so few in EF!? What patterns are perpetuated within EF! today that inhibit people of color from getting involved, and how can we change this? How can we better illustrate the connection between the struggles of people of color and ecocide? How can attitudes of white domination be dealt with openly and positively? What can I do?”
...
Why Caucus?
While many of us are tired of having to hold white people’s hands with regard to recognizing privilege, the fact remains that there continues to be a simple misunderstanding—as well as outright ignorance and intolerance—about the need for an exclusively POC space.
Here’s why we caucus: POC-only spaces serve as safe spaces in which those of us most directly affected by white supremacy can find solidarity with each other’s shared experiences without having to deal with accusations of “reverse racism” and outbursts of white guilt. Moreover, they serve as a kind of social pressure valve where we may safely air our grievances. That way, outside of these spaces, we can have more productive conversations—keeping these feelings bottled up is emotionally and psychologically unhealthy, and is certainly not conducive to getting shit done." - excerpts from We See Color and It Fucking Matters By the Anti-Authoritarian People of Color Caucus, EF! 2008 Winter Rondy

Uh, perhaps because they don't want to be associated with a bunch of spoiled mentally crippled preppy eco-terrorists?

This is a forgery, one of many. For some idea of how often nessie's name gets forged, Google "nessie indymedia forgery" and see what comes up:

How many hundreds of people on the internet are using the name "nessie"? Why does some moron in California expect anyone in Pennsylvania to know who he is just because he's one more face in a crowd of "nessie"'s?
How stupid can anyone be?

The indymedia consists of anonymous posters. There's an indymedia in many large cities, each with its own point of view. So why does one "anonymous" person in California think it should automatically be recognized in Pennsylvania or Japan?
Don't you know who I am?!?
Nobody, but nobody else on this planet, except for a self-inflated trouble maker, has spent years and wasted everyone else's untold bandwidth spamming the same old dittoed nonsense of "forgery" of a pseudonym. And in all these years, the grease monkey has never ascended beyond his lowly staus, and of course he never will. He couldn't even run his own little indymedia, because he's a loser.
His only legacy is that he never gave anything of real substance to the collective, but always shook his high chair with gimme gimme gimme!
good question

Bob Ness seemingly hasn't used "nessie" for years, since he was so soundly ridiculed for his "amplifiering happiness reflector" idiocy. And anyway, the mental cripple uses so many nicknames, so why the beef over one he never uses?
Bob Ness is an obsessive mental cripple. There is no other conclusion to be drawn.
