What: Rally Against the Theft of Antiquity, Stop Peabody’s Restraint on Black Mesa Navajo History.
When: October 30, 2013 - 11AM-2:30PM
Where: Museum of Northern Arizona's Colton House, Flagstaff, AZ (3101 N Fort Valley Rd) 86001
Why: Millions of Indigenous remains, artifacts, and sacred objects have been desecrated by Peabody Energy's coal mining at Black Mesa, Arizona. All these are being withheld in vaults at closely associated universities. Peabody's recent expansion plan threatens to further desecrate hundreds more ancient sites.
Flagstaff, AZ - Concerned Diné (Navajos) and other indigenous rights supporters will be holding a protest to expose Peabody's deliberate process of confiscating Indigenous History. More: http://intercontinentalcry.org/protest-planned-stop-desecration-burial-sites-black-mesa/
