Correction
A story headlined "'This is Our World'" in the Aug. 27, 2020 edition of the North Coast Journal contained inaccurate and potentially misleading information. Humboldt County historian Jerry Rohde said the "Humboldt Volunteers militia formed in 1860 was known to murder Native people, but did not indicate the same is true of three other militias mentioned in the article. Further, it should be noted that while Rohde and local history enthusiast Lynette Mullen are quoted extensively speaking to specific historical claims in an online petition seeking to rename certain Arcata streets, they did not personally review the petition or take a position on it. The Journal regrets the error and any confusion caused by the article.
