National MEChA Action
This year's national action will be to protect the San Francisco Peaks from the desecration of Arizona Snowbowl and to protect the rights of immigrants in a climate of racist anti-immigration laws, people, and institutions.
We will be gathering at 3:00 PM, Saturday March 25th at the Aquatic Center of Northern Arizona University. There will be places for commercial buses, vans, and other transportation to park.

We are planning a regional mobilization to march to the City Council of Flagstaff to show them that struggling peoples stand together for dignity and respect.
Voices from the reservations, barrios, big cities, and border towns will be heard not in the hundreds, but in the thousands. We will speak of a new day, of change, of respect for our Earth, of respect for the San Francisco Peaks and other sacred sites that are being desecrated, of the right to move freely from place to place without discrimination and exploitation, of balanced relations between people, of a world where many worlds can fit.
The same system that desecrates sacred sites is also the same system that denies human rights.
We are asking for Nations, institutions of faith, businesses, Chapter houses, grassroots movements, academic departments, student groups, and others to sponsor this event and help mobilize and do outreach locally in their communities.
Spread the word, organize caravans to Flagstaff, contribute financially, and post everywhere.
