 development on indigenous land\n\nAs part of a California-wide March tour, 
 Elouise Brown will be speaking and showing films at the Watsonville Brown 
 Berets office on the evening of Tuesday, March 23rd.\n\nElouise Brown is a 
 Diné (Navajo) traditionalist and president of the Doodá Desert Rock

 struggle to prevent the Desert Rock plant from ever existing. \n\nSeveral

 Farmington, New Mexico) has been blockading entry to the site of a proposed 
 1,500 megawatt coal fired power plant. Desert Rock would be the third coal 
 plant within a 20-mile radius in a region already suffering from extreme 
 levels of toxic emissions. \n\nOther Santa Cruz/Watsonville area

 of the health of our children, the air we breathe, our sacred land and

 are honored and obligated to protect and preserve the natural state of 
 Harmony and Beauty." \n- Elouise Brown\n
