DESCRIPTION:Join us at the People of the Americas Unite event at the Veterans Memorial 
 Building in Santa Cruz, CA! Let’s come together in a spirit of unity, 
 compassion, and democracy to shape a more inclusive approach to immigration 
 and foreign policy. This gathering will highlight the importance of respect 
 for vulnerable communities and our neighbors across Canada, Mexico, Central 
 America, and beyond.\n\nFeatured speakers include Dolores Huerta (via 
 pre-recorded video, co-founder of the United Farmworkers Union), Camila 
 Chavez (executive director of the Delores Huerta Foundation, daughter of 
 Dolores Huerta, and niece of Cesar Chavez), Daniel Sheehan (Chief Counsel 
 of the Romero Institute), and Chase Iron Eyes (Executive Director of the 
 Lakota People’s Law Project). To close the evening, renowned Brazilian 
 musician Poranguí will share his powerful music.\n\nThe day begins with a 
 free, public rally at the Clock Tower in downtown Santa Cruz at 4 PM. Talks 
 begin indoors at 6 PM, with music starting at 8 PM, and the event 
 concluding at 10 PM.\n\nThis in-person gathering is a unique opportunity to 
 celebrate community, build cross-border solidarity, and envision a 
 healthier, more connected future for all peoples of the Americas. Together, 
 we can create a more welcoming and inclusive continent!\n\nGratitude to our
