On Tuesday, October 23, 2001 at the Belmont Law Center in Portland, Oregon, Tre Arrow held a Press Conference to discuss his recent confrontation and injuries sustained while defending Acey Thin Timber Sale at the Oregon Coast.
Prior to his fall, Tre was in the tree for 45 hours at the Acey Line Thin Sale, also know as God's Valley. This was his first public appearance after being released from the hospital. For background information on the ongoing protest, including active tree sits, see the Portland Independent Media Center Site.

I stand as a true voice for positive, just change. We can no longer let many of our elected officials and corporations overrun our basic rights, health and freedom while disregarding the sacredness of this planet. It's time to take back the power from the powers that be and put it back where it belongs; into the hands of the people.

Many of our elected officials remain elusive, intangible and unapproachable. Hiding behind clever wording and empty promises, when it comes time to listen to the constituents they are generally unresponsive. This country was set up by the people for the people. Yet today this country is run by corporate money and greed with the very people who are supposed to be representing the voice of the public turning their backs and allowing corporate dominance over every dimension of our lives.

The final 3% of our native forests remain. We have one of the worst education records of any industrial nation. Our prisons, landfills, and hospitals are filling up without any permanent solutions, only construction of more. Our water, air and land is latent with poisons and contaminates. Many corporations pay lower tax rates than private individuals.

We have to realize we are all an intricate part of the circle of life and we must work together to bring about positive change for this planet.

Tre Arrow, you are an inspiration, where ever you are.

Tre Arrow is one of the brave, whereas the men in suits behind the large, greed-driven corporations are the real cowards. It's sad that in an age of industrial and mechanical extravagance- we still allow cowards to hide behind the force of law-bending to their advantage. The wise of the world know that in the end- the first come last. The humble of the earth shall inherit it, and the cowards shall wither like flowers of the field.
