About that Recall Editor: For those hesitant to vote in the recall election, let me point out the Republicans in Texas’ blueprint for governance (“Do You Recall?” Aug. 26). It very well may be repeated here should they prevail. Taking a cue from the Red Chinese government, their strategy is to enable ordinary citizens to “snitch” on their neighbors with financial incentives to do so for perceived offenses against the state.

So yeah, sit out the recall. Big deal, maybe that nosy neighbor makes a clandestine phone call alerting the authorities. You get a knock on the door and summons to court for a lawsuit against you for $10,000 or more. Taking those personal freedoms away pales in comparison to being required to wear a mask. Oh, excuse me. That guy down the street that resented my vocal support for the Eureka High School Improvement Bond seems to have made a call to an ambulance chasing attorney, and someone is at my door. I wonder what they want …

John Dillon, Eureka Editor: Recall Ballots have appeared in our mailboxes. This ridiculous recall is an undemocratic effort to replace a Democratic governor (who clearly won in a fair and open regular election) with a long list of unqualified and dangerous candidates.

California is currently in the midst of a healthcare crisis, raging wildfires, and a record-breaking drought. Gov. Newsom, the democratically elected leader of our state, has done an excellent job steering us through these tough times and keeping our economy stable (fifth largest in world!). The Republican party seems to be maintaining a laser focus on making everything worse. Among the long list of conspiracy clowns on the ballot is right-wing radio talk show host Larry Elder, who casts doubt on climate change and pledges to

repeal all COVID mask mandates; he is a threat to the public health.

Although out-of-state RNC money paid for collecting recall signatures, the California Department of Finance estimates the cost of this farce to California taxpayers will be $276 million. It appears that our situation is like being in a lifeboat that most of us are desperately trying to row through a frightening storm, while a lunatic on board tries to punch a hole in the bottom of our boat.

Vote no on the recall! Mail in your ballot well before the due date of Tuesday, Sept. 14.

Lesley Ester, Eureka Editor: Regardless of the outcome of California’s current gubernatorial recall election, the state of California’s recall provision needs to be reformed immediately after Election Day, Sept. 14th. And here’s why: Any completely unqualified attention seeker with $4,000 for the candidate‘s filing fee can be the largest state in the union’s next governor, so long as they survive the Battle Royale runoff where dozens of depressingly dimwitted dolts compete to be California’s last political comic standing.

No need for a democratic majority of the vote, if you’re one of this year’s 46 ridiculous replacement candidates.

After all, Hollywood action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger only received 48.6 percent of the vote when he replaced Gov. Gray Davis after the successful recall vote in 2003.

Now in 2021, if California’s current Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom is recalled, his Republican replacement will take over with at best half of Schwarzenegger’s percentage of the vote. Gov. Larry Elder?

Yeah, I don’t think so.

For California’s sake, we must change

Terry Torgerson

the recall law to ensure that this is the final curtain call for the crazy clown car of recall candidates circus that has made a silly situation stupid! (And we Californians are paying $276,000,000 for this malarkey?!)

In addition to eliminating the clown car of recall candidates, the recall provision should be reformed so that if a future governor is recalled by the voters, the sitting lieutenant governor becomes the state’s next governor.

Jake Pickering, Arcata

Take Climate Action Now Editor: The recent reports about climate change urgency along with the increase

in extreme weather events (fires, floods, hurricanes, drought) could tempt us to turn our focus away and give up in a sense of powerlessness. It is difficult to keep paying attention and to take action when individual action can seem so insignificant. But there are things we can do individually and collectively in our communities that could make a difference. Here is a short list of easy potential actions. I challenge myself, and each of us, to pick one of these (or one of your own good ideas for mitigating climate change) and do it this week. Next week, do one more, building habits. Share what you did with your friends or here in a letter. Let’s encourage and inspire each other.

$1 Billion Lost Editor: As current Eureka City Councilmember Natalie Arroyo campaigns for Humboldt County Supervisor, one of her, one of our, greatest challenges is the debilitated financial situation of governmental agencies.

In 2015, Eureka started paying down its pension debt with a $900,000 payment, a yearly debt payment that increased to $6 million in 2021, is currently scheduled to increased to $8.4 million in 2029 and continue until 2038.

In 2015, HumCo had $220 million in pension debt but could only pay 21 percent of its $28.5 million obligation. Now, just six years later, in 2021, HumCo announced its pension debt increased to more than $330 million. In response to this huge increase in pension debt, HumCo brings forth the projection that its pension contributions will increase by $17 million per year for at least the next decade. This means additional payments of, for example, $17 million more in Year 1, $102 million more in Year 6, increasing to $170 million more in Year 10. Total increase in Humco pension spending over the next decade: $935 million. (HumCo also has $250 million in deferred maintenance.)

payments together and we have over $1 billion, yes, over $1 billion ($1,000,000,000) in funding taken away from services over the next decade.

It will take a tremendous amount of creative thinking and many bold steps to overcome this $1 billion loss of funding for services and get things done.

Thanks for listening.

Documenting Resilience

New podcast highlights pandemic parenting experiences in Humboldt

By Iridian Casarez

iridian@northcoastjournal.com

T

he initial COVID-19 stay-at-home orders in March of 2020 brought out fear and anxiety for almost everyone, sending the barriers between work, home and relaxation crashing down. Seemingly overnight, homes became offices and where people socialized through a computer screen. For parents and caregivers, they also became playgrounds, schools, daycares, after school programs — everything that was once a part of their kids’ lives.

The world as people once knew it was rapidly changing in ways that were extreme and different, so people had to cope and be resilient.

Humboldt State University social work professor and Director of the Altruistic Behavior Institute Ronnie Swartz wanted to highlight just that: how Humboldt County families coped through the initial shutdown of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Most importantly, he wanted to create something other Humboldt parents and caregivers could find that resonated, letting them know they weren’t alone in their experiences through an unprecedented time.

With the help of a joint grant from First Five Humboldt and the Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services, he created We Live Here: Humboldt Families Coping with COVID, a podcast, with each episode focusing on a different local’s experience.

“The goal was to circulate the lived experience of diverse parents and caregivers of children 0 to 8 years old to highlight the ways in which they’ve encountered stress and demonstrated resilience,” Swartz said, adding that while the description sounds rehearsed, it’s true. “That’s really what this is about, is highlighting the various forms of stress and resilience in (these) families.”

Originally, before the COVID-19 pandemic, Swartz created a different project (titled with the same name: We Live Here)

that would bring forth people who live in Humboldt County and were otherwise marginalized to share their stories for others to listen to, understand and relate to. The idea was inspired by a 2018 media campaign created by then HSU master of social work students Amy Mathieson and Erin Youngblood-Smith called “We Are Your Community,” which shared the stories of African American HSU students through posters and videos (“A Student Project Seeks to Bridge Humboldt’s Campus-Community Divide,” April 12, 2018). But then the entire world went into lockdown and it, like so many other events and projects, became a casualty.

But then First Five and DHHS released a call for projects addressing some dimension of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) or childhood trauma. But more specifically, they wanted projects centered on supporting caregivers and parents of children 0 to 8 (zero meaning pregnant women) and Swartz jumped at the chance.

“How are families doing this? How are they coping with this extreme stress? With such difficulty? With suffering? And how are they demonstrating their resilience and their ability to overcome such extraordinarily difficult circumstances,” Swartz said.

“It’s within the context of COVID. How are these folks surviving in these difficult circumstances because the telling of how people who have done this can be really powerful for those who have lived through it.”

Swatrz conducted about 20 interviews from February through March of this year but the editing of the recordings took a lot of time, so he was only able to produce seven episodes. Nonetheless, listening to the stories of Humboldt County parents and caregivers coping from the initial lockdown of the COVID-19 through the first year of the pandemic is eye-opening.

Photo courtesy of Ronnie Swartz Each episode begins with “We live here,” a song by Pat Metheny, then proceeds to a parent or caregiver telling their experiences of how they were able to get through the initial lockdown to the reopening of some schools and how the pandemic has slowly become a new normal for their children. Some women also recount experiences giving birth and taking care of infants during the pandemic.

The podcast, which only uses interviewees’ first names, details what it’s like to parent during COVID-19, from how hard it was to get kids to focus during distance learning and the difficulty some parents had taking on more roles than just mom or dad to where they found self-care and resilience.

Latrice, who has three children, talked mostly about her experience with her youngest daughter, a kindergartener, who had the most difficulty staying focused on online learning.

“I just found myself advocating for my daughter more and being involved and staying connected to the teacher and school campus,” Latrice said in the podcast, adding there are days when her daughter is up for online learning and others where she’s not. “That’s the hard part, too. The teacher, they have to keep the kids engaged and integrated, but I don’t push.”

It was an honest podcast, one that gives non-parents and caregivers a look into their experiences.

The episodes also highlight some positives aspects of staying home. In one instance, Mai, a Hmong mother, was excited about having the time to teach her kids more about their culture.

“Because they’re home, actually, it’s been fun because they’re learning certain

things in Hmong, or I’ll be talking to them in Hmong and I told them, too, ‘Oh, this is the perfect time for you to learn Hmong,’ because Hmong is not their first language, I think them being home, they understand more,” Mai said in the podcast.

Swartz hasn’t spoken to any of the parents featured in the podcast since their interviews but said he can only imagine how things have changed, especially given the recent rise in Humboldt County’s COVID-19 numbers as students return to school.

“I think things are still pretty damn hard for a lot of families,” Swartz said. “I’m sure things for some families are better and I’m sure there are probably some families that things are just as stressful and there’s probably some families where things are even harder. Things are tough all over.”

He hopes other families, parents and caregivers are able to listen to the podcast and find some solace and comfort hearing similar stories to theirs. But more so, he hopes the Humboldt County community — including parents, caregivers and everyone else — gets a better understanding of itself.

“I loved doing it, and I loved the people who offered to participate in this and share their stories with me and the broader community,” Swartz said.

’m a respiratory therapist. With the fourth wave of the pandemic in full swing, fueled by the highly contagious Delta variant, the trajectory of the patients I see, from admission to critical care, is all too familiar. When they’re vaccinated, their COVID-19 infections most likely end after Stage 1. If only that were the case for everyone.

Get vaccinated. If you choose not to, here’s what to expect if you are hospitalized for a serious case of COVID-19.

Stage 1. You’ve had debilitating symptoms for a few days, but now it is so hard to breathe that you come to the emergency room. Your oxygen saturation level tells us you need help, a supplemental flow of 1 to 4 liters of oxygen per minute. We admit you and start you on antivirals, steroids, anticoagulants or monoclonal antibodies.

You’ll spend several days in the hospital feeling run-down, but if we can wean you off the oxygen, you’ll get discharged. You survive.

Stage 2. It becomes harder and harder for you to breathe. “Like drowning,” many patients describe the feeling. The bronchodilator treatments we give you provide little relief. Your oxygen requirements increase significantly, from 4 liters to 15 liters to 40 liters per minute. Little things, like relieving yourself or sitting up in bed, become too difficult for you to do on your own. Your oxygen saturation rapidly declines when you move about. We transfer you to the intensive care unit.

Stage 3. You’re exhausted from hyperventilating to satisfy your body’s demand for air. We put you on noninvasive, “positive pressure” ventilation — a big, bulky

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Sept. 9, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

face mask that must be Velcroed tightly around your face so the machine can efficiently push pressure into your lungs to pop them open so you get enough of the oxygen it delivers.

Stage 4. Your breathing becomes even more labored. We can tell you’re severely fatigued. An arterial blood draw confirms that the oxygen content in your blood is critically low. We prepare to intubate you.

If you’re able to and if there’s time, we will suggest that you call your loved ones. This might be the last time they’ll hear your voice.

We connect you to a ventilator. You are sedated and paralyzed, fed through a feeding tube, hooked to a Foley catheter and a rectal tube. We turn your limp body regularly, so you don’t develop pressure ulcers — bed sores. We bathe you and keep you clean. We flip you onto your stomach to allow for better oxygenation. We will try experimental therapeutics.

Stage 5. Some patients survive Stage 4. Unfortunately, your oxygen levels and overall condition have not improved after several days on the ventilator. Your COVID-infested lungs need assistance and time to heal, something that an ECMO machine, which bypasses your lungs and oxygenates your blood, can provide. But alas, our community hospital doesn’t have that capability.

If you’re stable enough, you will get transferred to another hospital for that therapy. Otherwise, we’ll continue treating you as best we can. We’re understaffed and overwhelmed, but we’ll always give you the best care we can.

Stage 6. The pressure required to open

your lungs is so high that air can leak into your chest cavity, so we insert tubes to clear it out. Your kidneys fail to filter the byproducts from the drugs we continuously give you. Despite diuretics, your entire body swells from fluid retention, and you require dialysis to help with your renal function.

The long hospital stay and your depressed immune system make you susceptible to infections. A chest X-ray shows fluid accumulating in your lung sacs.

A blood clot may show up, too. We can’t prevent these complications at this point; we treat them as they present.

If your blood pressure drops critically, we will administer vasopressors to bring it up, but your heart may stop anyway. After several rounds of CPR, we’ll get your pulse and circulation back. But soon, your family will need to make a difficult decision.

Stage 7: After several meetings with the palliative care team, your family decides to withdraw care. We extubate you, turning off the breathing machinery. We set up a final FaceTime call with your loved ones.

As we work in your room, we hear crying and loving goodbyes. We cry, too, and we hold your hand until your last natural breath.

I’ve been at this for 17 months now. It doesn’t get easier. My pandemic stories rarely end well. l This article first appeared in the Aug. 26, 2021 Los Angeles Times.

COVID Surge Continues, Bringing More Hospitalizations, Deaths

A

s the Journal went to press Sept. 7, Humboldt County Public Health had reported 435 new COVID-19 cases, 19 new hospitalizations and three deaths through the first seven days of the month.

And that’s on the heels of a brutal August, which saw more than 2,000 new cases locally, eclipsing the combined totals for the post-holiday surge months of December and January. August also saw records of 98 new hospitalizations and 22 deaths, accounting for 30 percent of the total hospitalizations and 29 percent of the total deaths recorded locally through the duration of the 18-month pandemic.

In another indication that the current surge is not slowing, the county’s test-positivity rate — or the percentage of COVID-19 tests that come back positive for the virus — reached a record 15.9 percent in August. Through the first days of September, it jumped to 17.5 percent, dwarfing the national rate of 9.6 percent and the state rate of 4.1 percent.

A state database showed 38 people hospitalized with COVID-19 locally as of Sept. 7 — down from a record 42 on Sept.

3 — with 10 under intensive care, as hospital capacity remains an acute concern among health officials, especially after four of six traveling nurses recruited to help Humboldt County weather the surge

reportedly walked off the job last week.

On Sept. 3, Public Health also reported the first local hospitalization of a child under the age of 10.

With an unprecedented rate of hospitalizations locally, County Health Officer Ian Hoffman and other officials have repeatedly urged residents to get vaccinated, saying they remain very effective in preventing severe illness, hospitalization and death. Hoffman noted that’s reflected in the county’s current hospitalization census.

“The vast majority are the unvaccinated,” he said.

According to the county’s dashboard, 53.3 percent of local residents are now fully vaccinated — including 60.9 percent of the eligible population age 12 and older — with another 6.85 percent having received one dose. While the average daily case rates among fully vaccinated residents have dropped sharply since the county reimplemented a mandatory masking order Aug. 7 — falling from 28 cases per 100,000 residents to 12 — rates among unvaccinated residents remain critically high at 84 per 100,000 residents.

And since the first confirmed breakthrough case in February, one fully vaccinated resident has died of COVID-19 while 45 unvaccinated residents have died from the virus. The same time span has seen 31 fully vaccinated residents hospitalized

As the Journal went to press Sept. 7, crews had the Knob Fire burning south of Willow Creek 89 percent contained, with fire managers looking to move firefighting resources from it to other blazes burning to Humboldt County’s east.

POSTED 09.07.21 with COVID-19 compared to 197 unvaccinated residents.

Last month, the county also reported that due to the record-high case volume, it will be making some changes to its dashboard and data collection practices moving forward. Specifically, the county will drop the “cases cleared” section of its dashboard because it’s become too time consuming to track all patients through their illnesses, while also discontinuing updates to its “transmission type” section because “data show the virus is widespread in our communities to the extent

that it is frequently impossible” to determine how someone was infected.

The county has vaccination clinics scheduled from noon to 2 p.m. Sept. 9 in Arcata and from 4 to 7 p.m. in Trinidad, and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sept. 10 in Garberville.

Racist Graffiti Arrest: Shawn Anthony Miller, 32, of Eureka, was arrested at 1:15 a.m. Sept. 3 for allegedly vandalizing the Eureka Skate Park with gang-related graffiti that included white supremacist and white power symbols. “Racism and hate have no place in our community and will not be tolerated,” said Eureka Police Chief Steve Watson.

Substitute Shortage: Across California, a substitute teacher shortage is putting another burden on an already challenging school year, with administrators taking desperate steps to make sure there’s an adult in the classroom when teachers are absent, which is happening more frequently amid a full return to in-person instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Man Killed in UTV Crash: The California Highway patrol is investigating a 4-wheeler crash in Southern Humboldt that killed a man in his mid-30s the evening of Aug. 31. The man was reportedly driving a side-by-side UTV on a dirt road on private property when he made an unsafe turn and suffered fatal injuries when the vehicle overturned.

‘A BRUTAL END’ The Great Timber Strike of 1935 and lessons from our past

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

A

s the sun crested over a hazy sky on Labor Day, a steady if shallow stream of shoppers ambled into Eureka’s Bayshore Mall from the parking lot. As they went, overlooking the sidewalk between the Boot Barn and the food court, they passed an old, worn copper sign commemorating one of the darker chapters in local labor history. A couple of miles to the north, in the briefing room of the Eureka Police Department headquarters, above a series of plaques commemorating good police work, hangs a glass case displaying a .45 caliber Thompson submachine gun.

The plaque and the gun remain two of the last publicly visible artifacts of the Great Lumber Strike of 1935 and the events of June 21 that year, which are al-

ternately described as a riot or a massacre, depending on who’s doing the accounting. And while the gun’s history remains somewhat uncertain, it — or one just like it — became the symbol of the bloody clash between striking lumbermen, police and private security guards, even though it’s unclear whether the gun was used to shoot anyone that day, much less take any of the three lives lost.

Almost 90 years later, the events of that day — seemingly long forgotten in popular local lore — carry reverberations that can still be seen today, as, at its core, the story of the Great Lumber Strike is a story about power.

provide the financial bedrock for generations of Humboldt County families, offering the kind of well-paying jobs today’s politicians talk about wistfully in high-stakes deliberations about what kind of industry to welcome to the area, there’s no escaping that in the early 1930s life in the mills was rough.

The Great Depression gutted the timber industry, as demand for lumber plummeted amid a glut of supply. As a result, hundreds of thousands of mill workers in the Pacific Northwest lost their jobs and wages dropped. By 1935, demand had started to rebound and about 10 percent of Humboldt County’s population worked in the mills, where they generally earned 35 cents for a 60-hour work week. Most lived in poverty.

The workforce had sporadically at-

tempted to unionize in the early 1900s but such efforts were quickly squashed, with lumber companies blacklisting union leaders and “sympathizers.” But by 1935, a national labor movement had taken hold and the passage of the National Industrial Recovery Act, signed into law by Franklin Roosevelt in 1933, had given all workers the right to collectively bargain.

In early 1935, as high-powered national unions began plotting a strike throughout the Pacific Northwest, Humboldt County’s Lumber and Sawmill Workers Union formulated its demands: 50 cents an hour, a 48-hour work week and recognition of its union. A short time later, however, the Norwest Council of Lumber and Sawmill Workers met in Aberdeen, Washington, and set its sights much higher, demanding 75 cents an hour, a 30-hour work week,

overtime and holiday pay, and union recognition, according to Organize! The Great Lumber Strike of Humboldt County 1935 by Frank Onstine and Rachel Harris.

The following month, a fiery representative of the larger union, Abe Muir, traveled to Eureka and persuaded the local union to drop its demands and stand with millworkers and lumbermen to the north, matching their demands.

“Muir gave a demagogic speech in which he said that if a strike was called, ‘no carpenter anywhere in the country will touch a piece of redwood lumber, no painter will paint it, no electrician will put electrical wiring into a home built with redwood, no railroad worker will ship it, no seaman will haul the lumber … and we will force these lumber barons to their knees,’” Onstine and Harris’ account states. “In Washington and Oregon, higher wages and stronger local union organization made the demands of the Northwest Council seem realistic. In Humboldt County, however, the idea that a fledgling redwood local union could force the lumber barons to double wages, to cut the work week in half and — simultaneously — to recognize a union for the first time strained the bounds of credibility.”

But members who spoke in favor of postponing a strike and holding to the more realistic local demands were shouted down by Muir as “company agents,” and Muir’s proposal carried the day. On May 15, Humboldt County workers joined a strike that included much of the West Coast lumber industry. Picket lines soon followed.

The companies responded with a public relations offensive that saw so-called loyalty oaths circulated among their workers, who signed under duress or threat, according to some union reports, and were then excitedly reported by Eureka’s two daily newspapers, the Humboldt Times and the Humboldt Standard. Both papers had run front-page editorials denouncing the strike, with the Standard proclaiming it “little short of criminal.” Within days, Eureka Mayor Frank Sweasey announced the establishment of a “committee of 1,000” to “guarantee the safety of the citizens and property owners of Eureka” during the strike, according to Onstine and Harris’ account.

“The strength of the strike is difficult to assess because of conflicting reports by the newspapers and the union,” they write. “My own estimate is that about 1,000 workers were involved at the peak of the strike and that about 300 were still out by the end.”

Harris and Onstine surmise that while many were sympathetic to the strikers, more workers didn’t join because of its

timing — coming just as many millworkers returned from winter layoffs — and many simply judged it to be a “lost cause.”

But there were larger signs of support from the general community. The local chapter of the International Longshoremen’s Association stood in solidary with the strikers, pledging not to ship any lumber produced at the involved mills, and donations from some local businessmen, farmers and fishermen were enough to keep a “strike kitchen” feeding several hundred people daily for the strike’s duration. And union leaders continued to argue better wages and working conditions for millworkers would benefit 99 percent of the local populace.

For about a month, striking workers picketed local mills, forcing those still working to “run the gauntlet” while crossing the picket lines.

By early June, tensions had escalated. The union reported that the lumber companies had hired a squad of “thugs” to intimidate picketers while local newspapers reported on a number of “near riots” along the picket lines and published stories about picketers scouring the city for rotten eggs to throw at workers or spreading tacks on local roads, reports the union disputed.

The mills and local law enforcement were readying for conflict, according to Onstine and Harris’ account, which includes a letter from teargas salesman Joseph Roush to his superiors detailing $1,272 in sales to the Hammond Lumber Co., as well as deals to outfit the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and the Eureka Police Department.

“I gave a short training course to the various law enforcement groups and guards and they were more than enthusiastic about the equipment,” the letter states. “If any serious trouble breaks out I think that I will be able to sell them at least three times the order which I have already delivered, which amounts to quite a bit.”

June 21, 1935 By mid June, the ranks of the strikers had waned to only the most devoted and reports that a return-to-work movement among local longshoremen was gaining strength made the strike’s end seem inevitable. On June 20, news circulated that bigwigs from the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and the International Longshoremen’s Association were coming to Eureka to gauge the strength of the picket lines, prompting the local union to issue a strike bulletin. Under the headline “Now or Never,” it invited every one of its memContinued on page 13 »

bers to attend a meeting that night.

During the tense meeting, the union decided to consolidate its efforts and send all picketers to a single mill. The following morning, they were directed to the gate of the Holmes-Eureka Mill, which sat along U.S. Highway 101, where the Bayshore Mall now stands.

By 6:30 a.m., approximately 200 strikers had gathered, according to Onstine and Harris’ account, and some created a makeshift barricade of old pallets and wood across the mill’s sole entrance.

“Non-striking workers began to arrive almost as soon as the pickets had gathered,” their account states. “Confronted with the determined picketers, most simply turned around and left. Witnesses later recounted that some youngsters in the group of pickets began throwing rocks and pieces of concrete at the strikebreakers’ cars, although this was contrary to the union’s directive to the pickets.”

When security officer James O’Neill arrived at the mill in his family car with his

wife to start his shift, picketers pushed the car halfway across the road, at which point a woman reportedly threatened them with a rock, prompting O’Neill and his wife to flee for the police station, where they summoned help. A full police response ensued.

Then Eureka Police Chief George Littlefield arrived at the scene in a brown Packard Sedan driven by O’Neill, who would go on to later become a captain with EPD and become grandfather to current EPD Capt.

Patrick O’Neill.

“Several witnesses watching from the flats above said that when the pickets stopped Littlefield’s car, he climbed onto the running board, pistol in hand, and began firing into the ground, shouting, ‘Who’s going to stop me?’” Onstine and Harris write.

Mickie Lima, a picket captain that day, told Onstine and Harris that seeing the escalating scene, organizers had decided to pull the picket line because “the situation Continued on next page »

ON THE COVER Continued from previous page

looked very dangerous.” But as picketers began to disperse, some of the officers began firing their newly purchased teargas canisters.

“They were firing tear gas bombs out of a rifle, like a sawed-off shotgun type of rig,” Lima said. “One of the women who was picketing, who was behind me, let out a scream and went down in a heap. I ran back to her thinking that she had been shot with a shotgun.”

The woman had been hit with a teargas canister, Lima said, but he didn’t know that at the time and, feeling blood underneath her, he “imagined it was much worse than it was.”

“I yelled to a number of guys and they started back towards me,” Lima said. “I yelled that they shot her in the back with a shotgun and yelled for somebody to get a car. Then quite a number of pickets came running back and finally they said, ‘Let’s get the bastards.’ We charged the police and that’s when they took a dumping, including Littlefield.”

Violent chaos ensued. As strikers attacked the police with rocks, officers opened fire into the crowd.

“Chief Littlefield was overpowered and beaten senseless with his gun by a Native American striker identified as Barry Phillips,” Onstine and Harris’ book states. “Several other officers were also disarmed and beaten with their own billy clubs and pistols.”

A 1995 article in the Times-Standard notes that O’Neill came to Littlefield’s defense, saying, “I started shooting at legs.

It looked like they were going to kill him, though, and I began to shoot for bodies.”

Onstine and Harris capture two scenes that illustrate the confusion and terror of the scene. In one, two officers arrested Virgil Hollis, throwing him into a police car prior to the eruption of violence, only to have Hollis drive the injured officers to the hospital after they retreated back to the safety of the car. In the other, an officer emptied his revolver through the windshield of his patrol car when it was besieged by picketers and then sped off “to find someone who could operate the submachine gun in the back of his vehicle.

He quickly returned with Ernest Watkins, a young Holmes-Eureka employee. Watkins proceeded to open fire but the gun jammed and he was only able to discharge a few rounds.”

During the melee, picketer Wilhelm Kaarte, 63, was shot in the throat and killed, and Harold Edlund, a 35-year-old Pacific Lumber Co. employee, was shot in the chest while attempting to help him. Paul Lampella, a 19-year-old bystander who was reportedly just lying on the ground, watching the events unfold from a distance of about 400 feet, was shot in the head.

14

Edlund and Lampella later died of their wounds.

Dozens of other picketers were injured and five police officers were treated at a local hospital for gas exposure, cuts and concussions, according to Onstine and Harris, though “all returned to duty later that morning.”

It was never publicly reported who shot Kaarte, Edlund, Lampella or the other picketers wounded the morning of June 21, 1935 — though there were no reports of picketers returning fire from officers and security guards. It’s unclear if who fired the fatal rounds was ever a subject of investigation.

Aftermath The official response to the events of that morning was swift, as police and a rumored group of “G-men” rounded up picketers and protesters by the dozen. At the direction of the police department, the local fire department even cleared a poor section of the city — a cluster of wood shacks known as “Jungle Town” — and burnt it to the ground, despite protestations from residents that they had been ‘bitterly’ against the strike,” according to an article in the Humboldt Times.

Police repeatedly cast the picketers as radicals, outside agitators and communists — allegations parroted by the newspapers. In one almost comical example unearthed by Onstine and Harris, police reported finding a “secret door” at the Finnish Federation Hall that contained old clothes “for needy radicals who come to the city” and a box of weapons with “pistols of many makes, daggers, knives, billy clubs and communistic literature.”

“It was later learned,” the pair write, “that the secret door was a closet located near a stage in the hall; the old clothes were costumes; and the weapons were props made of wood and rubber.”

Nonetheless, the Humboldt Times cast the police actions as having brought order to chaos in the following day’s paper.

“One of the bloodiest outbreaks of mob violence in Eureka’s history was replaced by peace and order last night, after federal, state, county and city officers combined to round up nearly 150 rioters and suspected radicals,” the story’s lede read. “Although considerable tension continued, officers believed their action had broken the back of a terrorist campaign launched by communist leaders yesterday morning.”

Two days later, both the Humboldt Times and the Humboldt

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Sept. 9, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

Standard ran front page stories warning that “truckloads” of “radical sympathizers” were headed to the county from Oregon and elsewhere, according to Onstine and Harris.

“Vigilantes were assigned to stop all cars approaching Eureka from the north and south, and anyone who looked as if he might be a ‘radical sympathizer’ was forced to turn around,” they write.

While the strike ended June 21, 1935, the fight soon moved to local courtrooms, where more than 100 people were to face charges of rioting. Only a handful stood trial, with one acquitted and others ending with hung juries after several responding officers were found to have perjured themselves on the stand. By the end of September, the district attorney had abandoned plans to bring any other cases to trial. No charges were ever brought against police officers or private security who shot teargas canisters or opened fire into the crowd.

The Times-Standard concluded in its 1995 retrospective: “The brutal end of the labor movement’s effort to organize the lumber industry in 1935 was a deterrent to union efforts for nearly a decade.”

‘Don’t Want to Forget’ On Aug. 19, 1995, the city of Eureka held a dedication ceremony to place the plaque on the Bayshore Mall to — 60 years later — publicly acknowledge the bloody day the timber strike ended. Then state Assemblymember Dan Hauser, local labor leaders and city officials gave speech-

es before the rectangular bronze plaque was unveiled, memorializing the day and commemorating the deceased.

Then Police Chief Arnie Milsap opened the proceedings.

“I want to make it perfectly clear: You’ll never see me — never see me — riding on a running board into the middle of a crowd firing my gun in the air,” he said, drawing laughs and claps from the crowd, according to Onstine and Harris. “The labor movement has contributed much to this country. Everywhere you go, you see evidence of it — the streets, the buildings, the waterways — everything that we take pride in for being part of a civilized society was built by people, many of them union members, many of them nothing more than conscripted people from foreign lands.”

Milsap then invited anyone from the public to — for “historical purposes” — come down to the police department to look at the tear gas guns and the Thompson submachine gun used on June 21, 1935, which he described as part of an “ancient past.”

“We can’t escape the tragedies or mistakes that were made 60 years ago; we don’t want to forget them and we don’t want to relive them,” he’s quoted as saying

by Ornstine and Harris. “We use those as building steps, to build a better future.”

What Milsap apparently didn’t tell the crowd that day is he’d taken a liking to firing that submachine gun.

William Honsal Sr., a retired longtime EPD captain, said he remembers that when he started with the department in the early 1970s, Milsap, one of his training officers, would occasionally get out the Tommy gun and let officers fire it in the shooting gallery that used to be in the basement of the Humboldt County Courthouse. At the time, Honsal said Milsap told him the department had purchased the gun in the early 1930s, though he was never explicitly told it was used that day in 1935. Honsal said the gun stayed in the armory, and was never displayed or used outside the shooting gallery while he was at EPD. When first contacted for this story, current EPD Chief Steve Watson said he didn’t know the gun’s history or how it came to be displayed in the department’s briefing room, adding that the city has no records detailing when it was acquired.

He’s since dispatched a detective — who’s also an amateur history buff — to research the gun’s past but, as the Journal went to press, had been unable to authenticate it, though he did hear from former Chief Ray

Shipley that he vaguely recalled a news report about a Thompson submachine gun being added to the department’s armory in 1950 or 1951, before he became chief.

If the gun is determined to be the one used June 21, 1935, Watson said it would obviously have a “historical significance” and he’d work to figure out an appropriate use for it, perhaps putting it on display in a local museum, if laws allow.

Whether it’s the Tommy gun sitting in EPD’s briefing room or not, the gun taken up by a millworker in 1935 seems to have played a minimal part in the gruesome events that unfolded at the gate of the Holmes-Eureka Mill. That it would become one of the enduring symbols of that day — splashed on newspaper front pages — is itself curious, and probably a sign that Humboldt County still has a lot to learn from its past. l

I immediately questioned why I torture my heavy limbs and black hole of a mind in this way. Then I remembered that Lizzie Odell was sleeping in the guest room of our small house, and her dad Errin was waiting for us at Freshwater Lagoon. The plan for this Sea to Summit mission (“Sea to Summit Part 1: Bald Mountain,” April 22) was to touch the Pacific Ocean just south of Orick and reach Salmon Mountain above Orleans by the end of the day, by bike and by foot.

Errin rode his bike from Somes Bar to the coast the day before and camped on the beach. If you know Errin Odell, you know this is not unusual. He is the strongest of the strong and the happiest of the content, his pinball machine of a brain moving from technology for kids to desolate roads to heirloom pepper seeds in microseconds, via rapid fire conversation with zero transition. I’ve always liked Errin and can follow his hyperspeed thoughts perfectly. His daughter Lizzie is just as strong, and, at 18 years old, she’s a bit quieter but just as positive. Both are true delights to ride with.

My husband grinds the coffee and the smell alone lifts my eyelids. Street lights shapeshift across seatbelts as Tom drives Lizzie and me north. Errin, Lizzie and I would ride up and over Bald Hills Road, then on State Route 96 to Orleans, where we would meet Tom again.

The crashing waves gave way to a salty sunrise and off we pedalled in the silver morning light. Up and over Bald Hills we went, traveling through the unceded territory of the Karuk and Yurok tribes, on the border of the Yurok Reservation. I imagined the precontact landscape of mature redwoods interspersed with tall grass prairies, and wondered if the landscape would be healthier if it was still managed using traditional methods. Our lungs burned and the sun lit the trees from below, making each branch appear dipped in gold. Down the switchback descent to Weitchepec, we remained careful of swerving drivers.

We crossed the wide bridge over the Klamath River and pedaled upstream in the still-morning hours. The day heated up

FISHING THE NORTH COAST

Anglers Enjoy Pacific Halibut Season Reopener

341 West Harris St., Eureka 707 445-3138

T

he Pacific halibut fishery reopened Sept. 3 and what a nice little shot in the arm for our local economy. You needn’t look any further than the local boat ramps as trucks and trailers were lined up as far as you could see. The charter fleet was also rejuvenated, with plenty of happy customers filling their boats over the holiday weekend. The “reopening” came after CDFW and NMFS indicated a much lower catch volume than previously projected following the June 30 closure. Can you say Christmas in September? While the boat traffic was heavy, the fishing wasn’t quite as red hot as everyone hoped. There were plenty of fish caught, including limits for some boats. The slower than anticipated bite didn’t seem to bother most anglers.

Being back on the water, drifting for a tasty meal while enjoying the long holiday weekend was enough for most. Prior to the weekend, more than 20,000 pounds were left to harvest of the 39,260 quota.

For more information, visit www.wildlife. ca.gov/conservation/marine/pacific-halibut#31670772-in-season-tracking.

Adult Salmon Quota met on the Lower Klamath In a press release issued Tuesday, CDFW projected anglers will have met the Lower Klamath River adult fall Chinook salmon quota below the State Route 96 Bridge near Weitchpec for the 2021 season as of 11:59 p.m. on Sept. 7.

This triggers the closure of the adult Chinook salmon fishery on the main stem of the Klamath River from the State Route 96 Bridge to the mouth of the Klamath River. The lower Klamath River below the State Route 96 Bridge at Weitchpec will remain open to the harvest of jack (2-yearold) Chinook salmon less than or equal to 23 inches. All adult Chinook salmon caught must be immediately released and reported on the angler’s report card.

Anglers may still fish for adult Chinook salmon in other reaches of the Klamath Basin, including the main stem of the Klamath River above Weitchpec and the entire Trinity River until the closure of

The Oceans: Eureka

With the Pacific halibut season opening back up, there was no shortage of anglers taking advantage of the calm seas over the weekend. According to Tim Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing, the bite wasn’t red hot but there are plenty of fish around. “Most of the effort was just north of the entrance in 300 feet of water,” he said. “The fish ranged from 12 to 30 pounds this weekend. The ocean looks fishable through the week so we should see some better scores. Boat traffic was heavy over the holiday weekend.”

Trinidad

According to Curt Wilson, of Wind Rose Charters, there were a handful of halibut caught over the weekend. “It wasn’t wide-open but there were fish caught each day over the weekend,” he said. “We were able to boat four on Saturday with the big fish weighing roughly 40 pounds.

Fish are being caught all up and down the line, from 180 all the way to 400 feet. The black rockfish action is still good but we’re still not seeing much variety.” The launch is scheduled to close Sept. 14.

Shelter Cove

The salmon bite continues to be somewhat decent, reports Jake Mitchell of Sea Hawk Sport Fishing. “Some private boats with two to three people have been getting limits, while many others have been striking out,” he said. “It seems it’s just about being patient and being in the right place at the right time. We averaged just over a fish per angler this past week.

Most of the action is just south of the harbor in 20 to 60 feet of water. Rock fishing is still solid and the lingcod bite seems to be improving a little as well. No one has been halibut fishing since it reopened that I know of.”

Menlo Park resident Craig Maynard landed a nice Pacific halibut over the weekend out of Trinidad.

Crescent City

Quite a few Pacific halibut were caught over the weekend, according to Britt Carson of Crescent City’s Englund Marine. He said, “The best bite was on the backside of the South Reef in 225 to 300 feet of water.

The rockfish and lingcod action remains excellent, with lots of limits reported over the holiday weekend.” One boat made a 25 to 35 mile run for tuna on Saturday and reportedly boated 15.

The Rivers: Lower Klamath

The salmon bite was red-hot over the weekend even with the increase in flows.

The river is full of jacks and quite a few adult kings are mixed in. Fish are being caught side-drifting the riffles and dragging bait through the deeper holes. The adult quota was met Sept. 7. The daily bag limit is two Chinook less than or equal to 23 inches. For more information, visit www. wildlife.ca.gov/News/lower-klamath-riveradult-fall-run-chinook-salmon-quota-met.

Simple Summer Salad

By Simona Carini

onthetable@northcoastjournal.com

I

n my most recent article, featuring a side dish made with zucchini, tomatoes and carrots (“Summer on the Plate,” Aug. 5), I wrote that ripe tomatoes mark the official beginning of summer for me and I scoop up old favorites and unfamiliar varieties whenever I see them at the farmers market.

My love story with tomatoes goes way back. As a child I would eat them as often as possible when they were in season and, when visiting someone who grew them in their vegetable garden, I would ask permission to pick some and eat them off the vine. My father was a master at making panzanella, a traditional dish of tomatoes and one- to two-day-old country-style bread. For my mother, making a tomato salad was a way of ensuring enthusiasm at the table.

One version included pomodori da insalata (salad tomatoes, slicing tomatoes harvested while still a bit green) and slicing cucumbers, the kind with dark green skin.

With the wide array of both tomatoes and cucumbers available nowadays, one can create endless different pairings, so the salad, the essence of summer on a plate, will never be boring.

The variety of tomatoes never ceases to amaze me. Color is the first thing I notice: yellow, orange, red, green and purple come in solids, and intriguing striped and marbled patterns. They run from small to larger and round to more elongated. And the flavor ranges from a sweeter to more acidic. I can only say to try as many as you can and find your favorite varieties. I have this strange idea

that tomato growers breed new varieties for the pleasure of naming them, things like persuasion (my favorite among Jane Austen’s novels), cherry bomb, purple sunrise or Berkeley pink tie-dye.

My cucumber palette has also expanded in the years to encompass first round, yellow lemon cucumbers, then other varieties from dark green to pale yellow in color, and from oval and plump to longer, more slender shapes. Most recently, I added to the list Armenian cucumbers, whose flesh tastes mild and sweet. They are long, thin-skinned, and come in a pale green and ridged, dark green or striped light and dark green, the latter known as striped Armenian or painted serpent).

Genetically, they are a musk melon (Cucumis melo var. flexuosus), rather than a cucumber (Cucumis sativus).

The addition of peppery radishes to the salad creates a pleasant contrast of flavors, accented by fresh basil, the tomato’s indispensable companion.

This summer I have prepared the salad a few times for my husband after he came home from a bike ride, as it makes for a refreshing and hydrating option after a workout. It takes just a few minutes to put together and is as pleasing as a simple combination of fresh ingredients can be.

scale) or a mix 10 ounces Armenian cucumbers or cucumbers of your choice 4 ounces radishes ½ tablespoon sherry vinegar 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil ½ teaspoon fine sea salt 6-8 fresh basil leaves, rolled and sliced into a fine chiffonade Prepare the salad shortly before serving it.

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half lengthwise and, if they are long, cut each half in half or into thirds crosswise. Slice round tomatoes. Place in a salad bowl.

Peel the cucumbers if needed. Note that some varieties, including Armenian cucumbers, don’t require peeling. Quarter the cucumbers lengthwise and slice them into the salad bowl.

Grate the radishes using the largest holes on a hand grater and add them to the salad bowl.

Put the vinegar, olive oil and sea salt into a small glass jar. Screw on the lid and shake well.

Distribute the vinaigrette on the salad and toss gently. Sprinkle the basil, then toss again. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking, then serve. l

Worth’s Old Math in a Changed World

By John J. Bennett

screens@northcoastjournal.com

WORTH. In 2001, New York City might as well have been 1 million miles away from me. In rural Southeastern Washington, that particular September morning was gorgeous, the changing season having begun to dispel the oppressive heat. I was on my way to class, oblivious as usual, and stopped at the student union, for what I do not recall. People were gathered around the one television set in unusual numbers, which I otherwise would have ignored. But because they were there, I looked up in time to see footage of the second plane hitting the tower; I didn’t really get it. I went on to class and, largely isolated from personal tragedy and mired in post-adolescent depression, made a flippant remark about the events of the day. I wasn’t callous, really, just ignorant and dismissive. The thing I had seen on the television was only that to me, in that moment, like the events at Columbine High School had been. They were fragments, unrealities observed from afar.

I had no context to understand the world was changing, probably forever and not for better.

Within weeks, some of those changes started to become palpable. There was a fully armed National Guardsman at the tiny regional airport. This became immediately relevant, as it meant I would likely not be flying to the Midwest to visit my then-girlfriend (now-wife) with weed on my person. There were flags everywhere.

Another war was beginning, one none of us (outside the Bush administration) could have imagined would last this long.

Two decades on, lumbering through adulthood, I have a hard time understanding how much time has passed and what its passage represents as a historical moment. I remain largely untouched by the events of that day, at least by any immediate personal standard. Like all of us, though — by which I mean humanity — alive during or after, I have to reckon with life on an incalculably different planet.

In the intervening period, I have rarely if ever meaningfully marked the anniversary of that day. But this year it’s been on my mind. Maybe because a 20-year anniver-

sary is momentous, regardless of what it commemorates; maybe because I am now of a certain age; maybe because we live in a truncated nightmare timeline with tragedy pinging in our pockets incessantly. Whatever the reason, I came to Worth almost accidentally but with a head full of ideas as to what it might mean.

As I am always quick to disclaim, those ideas and the head containing them, were/ are quite possibly unfair to the movie itself, a prejudgment based on absolutely nothing — other than lived experience, of course. No other way to live life though, or to approach art or anything else; just that the confluence of events and emotions and memories sometimes makes a given work feel more charged, more personal but also distant, than they otherwise would.

There have been enough 9/11 movies, all these years on, for them to coalesce into different groupings: the action-oriented; the maudlin; the political; the analytical.

Worth, with its emphasis on the immediate personal aftermath and the government’s shaded cynicism about the victims’ families looming in the background, doesn’t seem to immediately assign itself a category.

Ken Feinberg (Michael Keaton), a partner in a high-powered Washington, D.C. law firm with previous success in seeking awards for families and individuals injured in broad-based malfeasance (Agent Orange, asbestos), is a bit of a hard-case, necessarily detached from the personal devastation so immediately adjacent to his work. Still, he feels compelled to volunteer his services and the services of his firm to find a method by which the families of the victims of 9/11 might be compensated for their loss. As a means of self-protection, perhaps, but also of pragmatism, he must view the problem as a mathematical one, to be governed by hard and fast principles, without exception. The tragedy he and his team must process is an exceptional one, though, for a number of reasons. The human cost — the infinite

Stop saying you’re Batman.

Worth

variation in lives lived and lost — is the movie’s focus, and justifiably so.

But the fact that determinations must be made as to the value of each of those lives is down to corporate interests: the airlines have the ear of the government and their protestations that class action lawsuits could bankrupt the companies (and thereby the entire economy) are what lead to the creation of a victims’ fund.

The movie wrestles with the idea a little, as well as with notions of the disparity of wealth in this country, and the fact that agency and representation are, by and large, determined by the number of zeroes on one’s paycheck. And it is a composed, stately looking thing, with Keaton giving another grand mid-late career performance (even if Feinberg’s accent is a bit like ill-fitting dentures in his mouth).

The supporting cast, led by Amy Ryan and Stanley Tucci, do similarly noteworthy work. But to me, Worth looks and feels like a movie made before 9/11: The camera hardly moves, the soundtrack is largely score or opera, the lighting makes boardrooms feel like hallowed halls. Especially coming from such a young director — this is Sara Colangelo’s third feature out of film school — the movie seems oddly reverent, staid and unquestioning. It’s point of view seems to be on the right side of history, but its notions of resolution and lasting change, like its aesthetic, feel outdated. PG13. 118M. NETFLIX. l John J. Bennett (he/him) is a movie nerd who loves a good car chase.

FIELD NOTES

Following the death of Genghis Khan, the Mongol Empire both expanded and divided into four huge khanates (territories) governed by his eldest sons.

The Golden Horde

A

virgin carrying a gold nugget on her head could walk unmolested from one end of the empire to another.” — Persian historian Ata-Malik Juvayni (1226-1283) Within 50 years of his death in 1227, the Mongol Empire founded by Genghis Khan grew into a vast, contiguous empire under his four eldest sons, each of whom governed his own “khanate.”

Genghis’ grandson Batu, who led the Golden Horde, didn’t rule from a grand imperial palace but from horseback. The center of his power was “a self-sufficient, moving capital, a gold panoply that could shelter 2,000 men … carried on a train of oxcarts,” according to Asian history expert Colin Thubron. “The vast expanse of [the Golden Horde] could be covered only on horseback, and the horse was its early lifeblood.”

The Mongols were following thousands of years of steppe tradition with their “rule from horseback.” Starting around 3500 B.C., the Botai people of northwest Asia were probably the first to domesticate horses, followed by their early Bronze Age successors, the Yamnaya, who roamed freely across the steppes of Eurasia on horseback. Linguists have identified the Yamnaya language as the leading candidate for Proto-Indo-European that eventually — 5,000 years later — led to some 3.2 billion Indo-European speakers today, including us. Not just language, either: Some 50 percent of the genetic heredity of Europe (and 30 percent of that of South Asia) matches genes in DNA extracted from Yamnaya skeletons.

Back to the Golden Horde. At its peak the khanate extended across a vast territory of Eurasia — 2 million square miles — reaching as far west as present-day Turkey, Bulgaria and Poland. Although beset by virtually continuous in-fighting for power, historians refer to the Pax Mongolica (after the Pax Romana) to describe a period

of relative peace under a unified Mongol administration that followed their vast conquests, hence the above claim for the maiden’s safe passage.

With highly trained archers shooting from the saddle, feet in stirrups (hence our “getting a leg-up” metaphor) and lancers, the Mongols were rarely defeated in battle. As for discipline, the smallest unit consisted of 10 men; if one deserted, the other nine were executed. The might of their cavalry force is illustrated by the Mongol defeat of a huge Hungarian army at the Battle of Mohi in 1241. They later reached the outskirts of Vienna before withdrawing from Europe and only then, after the death of the Great Khan, since the “princes of the blood” had to be present for the election of his successor.

Given the Mongols’ overpowering horseback tactics, they might well have ended up ruling all of Europe had it not been for the Black Death (bubonic plague caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium), which put an end to their expansionist ambitions. The flea-borne disease probably arose on the steppes of central or eastern Asian around 1337, thence spreading westward, carried along the Silk Road

by Mongolian traders who survived the plague. It reached Constantinople in 1347 from where it spread throughout Europe, resulting in a staggering cataclysm — between 30 and 50 percent of the population died.

Two hundred years later, the population of Europe was still recovering to preplague levels, by which time civil wars in the previously great Mongol Empire, the largest the world has ever known, had reduced it to a mess of squabbling principalities. All we are left with are the stories. l Barry Evans (he/him, barryevans9@ yahoo.com), while researching this story, once again gave thanks for vaccines, the all-time greatest discovery in medicine.

LEGAL NOTICES OBITUARIES

Rita Wheeler Moore September 12, 1958 – July 9, 2021 Rita Wheeler Moore passed away July 9, 2021 after a brief illness. Rita was born in Phoenix, AZ on September 12, 1958 to Eugene and Gloria Wheeler. She graduated from Most Holy Trinity School in Sunnyslope in 1972 and Washington High School in Phoenix in 1975. She attended Glendale Community College until she joined the Air Force.

Rita moved to Humboldt County California when she left the Air Force. After moving to Eureka, she became active in the community. She graduated from Humboldt State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree specializing in Religious and Women’s Studies. She was active with the Women’s Studies program, now Critical Race, Gender and Sexuality Studies, where she participated in many related activities becoming an activist for gender equality. Rita volunteered with the Red Cross and had the opportunity to help with hurricane relief on the Gulf Coast. What Rita is best known for and was most proud of was her 30 years of work as a swim instructor across Humboldt County.

She was most passionate about her special students and her work with the Special Olympics swimming program. The families of her swimmers referred to her as “The Swim Whisperer” for her dedication and success.

Everybody in the area knew her as “Grandma Rita.”

Rita was preceded in death by her husband Randy Moore, their sons Benjamin and Scott, and father Eugene.

She is survived by her son Tim, daughter Pamela, four grandchildren: Dameon, Ericka, Jordan and Jasper, mother Gloria, eight siblings: Kathy, Matt, Ann, Angela, Pat, Ray, Theresa, and Mike, as well as many nieces and nephews.

There will be an informal Memorial Gathering honoring Rita at Redwood Park in Arcata, CA on September 11, 2021 from 1-4 p.m. Please stop by, see friends, share memories and stories with one another and Rita’s family. Bring a picnic. Celebrate Rita’s life. Because some family and friends are at high medical risk, wearing a mask when indoors at the park lodge is requested.

A private memorial and interment will be held at Saint Mary’s Cemetery at a different time for Rita’s family.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating in Rita’s honor to the Humboldt County Special Olympics Swim Team through sonc.org or to the Laurel Tree Charter School in Arcata, CA through laureltreecs.org
