SUPPORT NATIVE RESISTANCE
&
THE TRADITIONAL SUPPORT CARAVAN
Support Native Resistance (SNR) is a
student run organization located on the
University of Colorado campus in Boulder,
CO.
SNR supports the efforts of the Indigenous
People all over the world to have and to
hold the life that was given to them by the
creator such that it is free to love and to
hold valuable that which they are taught
without the encroachment of overbearing
power mongrels with nothing better to do
then to infatuate their own greed.
The Traditional Support Caravan (TSC) is
a community outreach organization that
gathers resources every semester to take to
families that are resisting relocation by
staying at their ancestral homes in response
to intensive strip-mining in their area.
These people consist mainly of Navajo
(Spanish) or Dine (Traditional) elders who
bravely wage war with the corporate
mongrel: Peabody Coal Co.
Their identity exists with the land as does
the land's identity exist with them. This is
what it means to be indigenous and we
applaud them for holding to their identities
for the sake of themselves and for the sake
of the land.
The people who need us the most right now live
near Big Mountain in the Black Mesa Region of
the Navajo Nation in Northern Arizona. A big
group of people were just issued eviction notices
saying that they had 90 days to get off of the
land or they would be forced to leave.
These people need some form of help and we
the organizers of TSC for this year are currently
in the process of fitting together a plan of action
and of service for these people.
We need 4 Wheel Drive vehicles that can
easily survive a trek through the Arizona
Prairie without the security of paved roads.
We need resources. Namely money but
supplies and materials can help a lot as
well.
We need those of you, who are willing to
spend your spring break hauling dirt, cutting
wood, and herding sheep while camping
beneath the stars in the Arizona Prairie.
If you are there: Follow this link Apply for
Caravan Spring Break 99'
I'm afraid that time is on its heels for us here but
if you have it please check out these sights for
more information about Peabody Coal Co. and
the plight of the Indigenous People that represent
the people we are going to try and help this
spring break.
