The Washington Post · Trump’s pick to oversee public lands withdraws after Jan. 6 criticism surfacesVon Maxine Joselow

_The Evening Post_, 7 April 1925:
DRIFTING SAND
FORESTRY OFFICERS INSPECT
COMBATING RELENTLESS
ADVANCE.
Good agricultural #land in various parts of the Dominion is being seriously threatened by the continuous and unrelenting drift of sand, and although much has been done by the State Forestry Service… to combat this, further experimental work is at present being carried out…. Altogether there are 92,000 acres [37K ha] of dune country in the #Wellington area, and 183,000 acres [74K ha] in the #Auckland district.
The menace… has become manifest particularly along the coast of the North Island between Wellington and New Plymouth, and the north coast of Auckland…
The theory advanced for the spread of the sand dune country is that before the advent of the European population…, the greater part of the sandy land was more or less stable, and Dr. L. #Cockayne, hon. botanist to the Department, declares that over-grazing and injudicious stock of land has caused it to become loose.
… settlers along the coast… refuted this suggestion…
As the waste sandy country is privately owned, very little action is being taken…, but… the Government, by… the Sand Drift Act… has power to undertake the work itself.

If we lose sight of #RightOfReturn as a central cause of #Palestine, then compromises will be made that will keep Palestinians dispossessed. So much of the reason why right of return is being swept under the rug is that it requires Israelis to lose #land. #Apartheid, #occupation, and #genocide all exist to enforce the original #dispossession of the #Nakba. #SouthAfrica is often upheld as a model, but the land there still remained controlled by the colonizers. This is soft #Zionism.

"The first person who, having enclosed a plot of land, took it into his head to say this is mine and found people simple enough to believe him was the true founder of civil society. What crimes, wars, murders, what miseries and horrors would the human race have been spared, had someone pulled up the stakes or filled in the ditch and cried out to his fellow men:
