The Berkeley Remix is a podcast from the Oral History Center of The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley. This season we're headed east of San Francisco to Mount Diablo in Contra Costa County. In this three-part series, "Fifty Years of Save Mount Diablo," we look at land conservation through the lens of Save Mount Diablo, a local grassroots organization. It's been doing this work since December 1971—that's fifty years. This season focuses on the organization's past, present, and future. Join us as we celebrate this anniversary and the impact that Save Mount Diablo has had on land conservation in the Bay Area and beyond. Episode 2: "Save Mount Diablo's Present." In this episode, we explore Save Mount Diablo's present. From supporting ballot measures and fundraising efforts to cultivating relationships with nature enthusiasts and artists to collaborating with outside partners, Save Mount Diablo continues to "punch above its weight." This episode asks: now that Save Mount Diablo has conserved the land, how does it take care of it? How does Save Mount Diablo continue to build a community? How are artists activists, and how do they help support Save Mount Diablo? How does Save Mount Diablo sustain partnerships to conserve land? This episode features interviews from our Save Mount Diablo Oral History Project and includes clips from: Seth Adams, Bob Doyle, Ted Clement, Abby Fateman, Jim Felton, John Gallagher, Scott Hein, John Kiefer, Shirley Nootbaar, Malcolm Sproul, and Jeanne Thomas. To learn more about these interviews, visit the Oral History Center's website. A special thanks to Save Mount Diablo for supporting this project.
