Flaming Arrows: a compilation of works by Rod Coronado

by Rod Coronado

Flaming Arrows is a compilation of works by political prisoner Rod Coronado. Most of the chapters were taken from the zine Strong Hearts, which Rod wrote while in prison from 1997-1999.
For over 20 years, Rod Coronado has been at the forefront of the radical ecological and animal rights movements. A loving father and compassionate warrior, he has inspired countless numbers of young radicals and scared the crap out of dozens of corporations. As a member of the Pascua Yaqui Nation, Rod has made clear the links between the current destruction of the planet and the ongoing genocide perpetrated against native peoples. All proceeds from this sale of this collection go to Rod's legal defense.
"As Earth warriors, we choose to be participants in the ancient battle between good and evil. On our side stand the waters and wind, and all things wild and of the Earth. On the other side, consumed with greed and in persuit of power, control and money, stand all the dark forces that lay waste to Her." - Rod Coronado
"[Rod Coronado is] a danger to the community... I know he wasn't tried here for being a violent anarchist. This trial isn't about Rod Coronado being a violent terrorist, but he is one." - Assistant U.S. Attorney Wallace Kleindienst

This is a must-read for any environmentalist. A fantastic read of a die-hard eco-anarchist and eco-warrior. I didn't like the dude at first, but after reading what he had to say, it was definitely inspirational, and I see the good he's doing, even if I may politically disagree with him. The last half of the book, however, is boring as hell, and I didn't bother to finish.

I really enjoyed reading his stories of being part of the ALF. Very inspiring!
