Episode 3: Goolengook and beyond

WARNING: Today’s episode contains graphic audio of a violent attack, including swearing, which will be upsetting for some listeners.We will be covering some of the darker moments of GECO’s history. This includes the violent attack by loggers on the Goolengook camp in February 2000, immediately after the first “no jurisdiction” action led by local Aboriginal leaders that you heard about in the last episode. We will also be hearing about some of the other memorable blockades after Goolengook, at the Eden Chipmill, Survey Road and Ferntree. We will touch on GECO as a share house, and all of the craziness that involved.
