Help Victor get to court! Victor and the other co-defendants were given very little time to make preparations to travel to Atlanta for this appearance.

In the spirit of Solidarity, help Victor get to court! Victor is being forced to appear in-person at a last-minute RICO hearing in Atlanta on May 7th. He needs funds for vehicle repair, travel, accommodations and court clothes. Please donate & share!!
Let's all support him so that he can continue fighting for his freedom and can reach ATL without any setbacks.

From now through April 29, we'll be accepting donations for our supply drive to Black Mesa! While shearing sheep at different home sites, we'll drop off boxes of supplies. Please send us or Thistle & Burr a direct message for the drop-off location.

We'll accept donations of fresh produce on April 28-29. We can accept shelf-stable goods at any time through April 29.
Thank you so much for any support you can offer! This is a very remote, high-desert community where residents are mainly elders and getting around isn't always easy, so it will be much appreciated.

Mama Julz is a true climate justice warrior, and now she is working to bring a long-term dream to fruition: the creation of a detox and healing center that will provide a safe space for recovery with culturally appropriate treatment for those suffering from addiction. This center will be for Indigenous people living on Pine Ridge in so-called South Dakota who are suffering from addiction. She aims to create a straw bale house, yurt platforms, and gardens; a crew of skilled builders will be convening to carry out the work. Please contribute to this incredibly important effort!

In early May, a group of us from SLC will go to Black Mesa to help with sheep shearing, in the spirit of solidarity with elders who have defended the land from coal mining for many decades. We aim to bring a load of supplies down as well, for Dine elders and families living in this remote high desert area. Please donate to help us bring things like food, shearing equipment, animal feed, and other necessities! We truly appreciate any support you can offer. If donating, please make a note saying it's for the Black Mesa trip. Thank you!
