DESCRIPTION:South Bay Indigenous Solidarity is a multi-ethnic group that supports 
 Indigenous-led, grassroots efforts to promote human rights, restore 
 Indigenous land stewardship and preserve threatened cultural, burial, and 
 sacred sites.  Our March, 2022, meeting will focus on several issues with 
 which SBIS is involved.  Focus will be given to the effort to Protect 
 Juristac and to an upcoming electoral effort in San Benito County that 
 could allow voters the chance to better protect the ecology and sacred 
 sites of that region.\n\nWe are expecting the release this month of the 
 draft environmental impact report for the proposed open-pit mine that would 
 decimate the most sacred Amah Mutsun ceremonial site of Juristac (in Santa 
 Clara County).   Sometimes described as 'Silicon Valley's Version of 
 Standing Rock', Juristac is unique from both an ecological and a cultural 
 perspective.  The planned 'Sargent Quarry' would potentially eviscerate 
 four sacred hills and remove over 40 million tons of sand and gravel from 
 the site.  The location of this open-pit mine is near the centre of the 
 only wildlife corridor to connect otherwise genetically-isolated 
 populations of threatened species in the Santa Cruz, Diablo, and Gavilan 
 mountain ranges.\n\n
