Call to action: Not in our Name, Not in our Honor!


Call to Bay Area Indigenous Community and Supporters!

Please join tomorrow April 30, 2006 at 12:00 PM



What: Protest to oppose mural dedication of Rocky Bairds’ “Capture of the Solid”

When: Saturday, April 30 2006 at 12:00 PM

Where: 4150 Piedmont Avenue in Oakland
Please join us as we assemble in the parking lot of Long’s across the street from Gaylord’s caffe espresso.

Why: To protest the inaccurate, racist, disrespectful portrayal of Indigenous Peoples that the artist claims pays honor and tribute to. The mural lacks cultural sensitivity and does not appropriately depict Ohlone people.
