This Sunday we're hosting "Scapegoat" author Clare Follmann and activist Patty Krawec for a virtual conversation about the the outdated narrative of "invasive species" and their management! Drawing on environmental science and semiotics, "Scapegoat: What the Invasive Species Story Gets Wrong" (AK Press, 2026) recounts how the use of biased rhetoric and inaccessible language has created support for a popular but misleading war of “native” against “invasive” that does nothing to address the root cause of biodiversity loss: the global capitalist system that is destroying our planet.
