DESCRIPTION:Please join us this Friday, August 20, from 4-6PM to protest against the 
 ongoing desecration of this sacred site and critical wildlife migration 
 corridor. We will be gathering at Y Road at 4PM for signmaking, followed by 
 a rally and short march at 5PM.\n\nWe are a concerned group of local people 
 organizing to protect the ecology, cultural heritage and sacredness of 
 Juristac, which includes this site at Betabel. We are acting in support of 
 the Amah Mutsun and this critical indigenous land and environmental 
 corridor.\n\nSan Benito County voters rejected a development proposed at 
 this location during a referendum in 2020, but legal loopholes are allowing 
 current construction activities to move ahead without environmental review 
 or tribal consultation. This area is ecologically sensitive and culturally 
 and spiritually significant - continuing development could result in the 
 destruction of Indigenous cultural sites if we don’t act.\n\nWe must 
 seize this opportunity to honor and respect sacred and environmentally 
 sensitive Indigenous lands at Betabel, before it’s too late. Help us 
 bring public attention to this issue and call on the developer to stop all 
 construction and earthmoving now!\n\nWHERE: Highway 101 Overpass at Betabel

 Betabel. The land is currently private property. We do not plan on entering
