DESCRIPTION:Please come out and defend this sacred space ?\n\nThe community altar at 
 the clocktower in downtown Santa Cruz was created on June 4th, 2020 by 
 Queer Black, Indigenous, POC community activists and students. This space 
 is meant to serve as a sacred site of visual representation to show our 
 love and grief for those who have been killed by state violence. This is a 
 space meant to honor the Black lives that were cut short by the hands of 
 kkkops. It is meant to honor the lives of the Indigenous peoples of Santa 
 Cruz who were forcefully taken to the Missions. It is meant to honor the 
 lives of the Indigenous immigrant community who are continuously harassed 
 and terrorized by the SCPD and ICE.\n\nThis is a space created by us— FOR 
 us.\n\nThe ofrenda has been violated many times, by the Santa Cruz city 
 parks and rec department, the SCPD, and by white supremacists who live in 
 the Santa Cruz area. Every single time it was taken down or vandalized, 
 community members have restored it’s beauty. We are hoping to keep this 
 space beautiful, as a pocket of resistance that honors our ancestors and 
 creates a visual representation of our existence and our struggle for Black 
 liberation & Indigenous sovereignty.\n\nWe are asking you to join us in 
 contributing to this sacred space. On September 29, 2020 from 3-7pm we will 
 dedicate this time to tend to our ofrenda as as a community. At 6pm we will 
 hold a vigil for Tamario Smith.\n\nFeel free to bring flowers, candles, 
 artwork, poetry, or other offerings to the altar. Please wear a mask and 
 respect physical distancing when you are in the space. Contact @a_place4us_ 
 or @bipocliberationcollective with any questions or concerns.\n
