 Nobody turned away\nA fundraiser for the Winnemem Wintu Tribe \nHosted by 
 Santa Cruz Indigenous Solidarity\nSanta Cruz is Awaswas Ohlone 
 territory\n\n"Let's become more aware, more knowledgable. Let's not be 
 swayed by money or promises. Let's do what is right for our mountain, and 
 our people, and our children. Let's do what is right and say No, not this 
 time. We have made too many concessions. Too many compromises. This time, 
 we speak for the mountain, and the mountain says No."\n\n—Pua Case, 
 speaking of Mauna Kea in Hawai'i\n
