 review a map if you are unfamiliar with the area!\n\nBACKGROUND\nSince 
 1977, federal relocation policy has forced over 12,000 Diné (Navajo) 
 people from their ancestral homeland in Arizona, an area known to contain 
 21 billion tons of high-grade coal. For over 30 years, many traditional 
 Diné families at Big Mountain have lived in resistance, steadfastly 
 refusing to relocate as strip-mines rip apart their sacred lands and 
 generating plants poison the desert air.\n\n"Coal is the liver of Mother 
 Earth"\nKeep it in the ground. Keep the earth alive.\n\n* 2011 Fall Caravan 
 to Black Mesa *\nOn November 19th, work crews from Santa Cruz and all 
 across the country will converge in support of the indigenous resistance 
 communities of Big Mountain/Black Mesa, AZ.\nDonations of tools, food, 
 clothing, and other basic supplies are requested.  A list of requested 
 supplies is provided below.\n\nDonations can be dropped off at the Resource 
 Center for Nonviolence in Santa Cruz, Monday-Thursday between 12 and 4pm, 
 or please call 831-708-8199 to make a different arrangement or request a 
 pick-up.\n\nThank you!\n
