March and Walk for the Ancestors at Glen Cove Shellmound in Vallejo

GETTING READY TO MARCH AND WALK FOR THE ANCESTORS AT GLEN COVE SHELLMOUND IN VALLEJO, CA- SEPT. 30

Come this Wednesday, September 30 at 11 am, Native Advocates and Activists will be marching and walking for the Ancestors in the 4,000 year old Glen Cove Shell Mound in Vallejo, CA.

This will become a very important issue for Indian Country in the preservation and protection of OUR sacred sites and holy places. The Greater Vallejo Park District simply put; wants to destroy the 15 arce Shell Mound site to create a waterfront park for rich people.

WE NEED EVERYBODY TO COME AND WALK FOR THE ANCESTORS! CLEARLY EXPRESS THE CITY OF VALLEJO IS OUT OF COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAW WITH REGARDS TO LEGALLY PRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE SHELL MOUND

THE CITY GOVERNMENT OF VALLEJO IS JUST DAMN WRONG AND DAMN WELL OUT OF CONTROL!

EVERBODY NEEDS TO WARRIOR UP, PLAN TO LET THESE FOOLS KNOW THEIR DAMN WRONG!!!

SHAME ON YOU CITY GOVERMENT OF VALLEJO FOR VIOLATING OUR HUMAN AND CIVIL RIGHTS AS NATIVE PEOPLE!!

Respected Native American author Vine Deloria Jr. wrote, "Sacred places are the foundation of all other beliefs and practices because they represent the presence of the Sacred in our lives."

We call upon Elders, Spiritual Leaders, Women and Children to join us in this walk in Harmony and Spirit for the Ancestors resting in this Sacred place. Remember our Ancestors, honor them, and protect them. Deloria stated, "A society that cannot remember and honor its past is in peril of losing its soul."
