A debut film screening in Santa Cruz of "2012 The Mayan Word." This groundbreaking documentary carries the voices of the Mayan people as they share their perspectives on the prophecies of their ancestors and their fight to defend Mother Earth and their culture from destruction.

The film is both a message of hope and a call to action.

  • Delicious food will be for sale
  • Peace & Dignity Speakers
  • Drum Spirit Singer (local Native drum group)
  • More TBA!

All proceeds from this benefit event will go towards Peace and Dignity Journeys to support their 2012 spiritual run that is dedicated to the water and to re-uniting the indigenous nations of the Americas. Peace & Dignity representatives will be at the event and will speak about this year's journey, which is already underway.

"They say that in 2012 the world is going to end. Lies!

The world isn’t ending. It’s the opposite: we are finishing ourselves off. The prophecies are given for us to check ourselves:

What are we doing? It’s clear that if we don’t do anything to recover the equilibrium of Mother Earth, we are digging our own grave.”
