Subject Minus
Subject Minus is the enigmatic leader of the Reject Army of Poetry (RAP), one of several anarchist and socialist organizations that collaborate on EcoSurvival Village. The RAP is loosely patterned on the rebels in southern Mexico known as the Zapatistas. They live in the mountains near Dead Mule Butte and the old Van Bibber mill. They call their village of cob houses, The Compound. Rumours have persisted in Wilbur County that Subject Minus is actually one of the original Zapatistas, transplanted to Oregon when the group began to go global with their message of indigenous anarchist transformation.

Her father, Isaac, was from a venerable Virginia family of Dutch descent. The family of her mother, Anais Josephe Charlebois, was from French Canada by way of Vermont. The Van Bibbers, who had become disillusioned of life in the east, simply packed up their three children one day, and joined Josephe’s brother and new wife who were bound for the Oregon Territory. By the time they reached Southern Idaho, Stephen Meek, an adventurer, mountain man, and experienced guide, convinced a few hundred families, including the Van Bibbers, to leave the main wagon train, which was taking the Oregon Trail to the Willamette Valley, and travel an alternate route through the Cascades, a route he claimed he knew well.
