7000 year old Indian Burial Site being destroyed!
Target:
Help stop development on sacred land. Preserve our history and yours!
Sponsored by:
An ancient Gabrielino-Tongva Native American Burial Ground was recently unearthed in Huntington Beach, Ca. It is estimated to be around 7000 - 9000 years old. Brightwater/Hearthside homes attempted to cover the fact that they hit ancient human remains and artifacts while building homes in Huntington Beach. In doing, so they have desecrated at least 178 graves!
Help us to stop the any further construction of this premises. The Gabrielino-Tongva tribes of Southern California are the second most recognized tribe in the state of California, yet have been unable to secure any land rights or benefits to their people. Their voices have been stifled once more in regards to protecting their ancient burial.
These findings should be researched and removed with grace and dignity by professional archeologists and either preserved or re-located according to the wishes of the Gabrielino-Tongva people!
Please sign our petition! Protests will be held every wednesday in Huntington Beach on the corner of Bolsa Chica and Warner Ave from 5 to 6pm until efforts are made to stop this unfortunate violation of historical and human rights!

Native American history is our history, no matter our ethnic background. We live in this country, so it is our history along with all the other histories of those who have made this land home. If we look at it on a wider scale, as a Global community, then each person's history belongs to the other. History is history and what right have we to trample on it? Now as far as desecrating burial grounds, why do we find it acceptable to do so to some ethnic groups and not to others? Wouldn't it be just as right then to bulldoze and build upon let us say, English American cemetaries? Can't see why not, under what is deemed acceptable in destroying an ancient burial ground in Huntington Beach CA.

WHAT AN OUTRAGE! WHAT A DISGRACE! WHAT A HORRIFIC THOUGHT, BUT IT'S REALITY SO PLEASE STOP NOW!! You have desecrated at least 178 graves of Gabrielino-Tongva people HOW DARE YOU! The second most recognized tribe in the state of California, yet have no land rights or benefits for their people How would you like someone building homes on your grave? STOP STOP STOP!! It is actions like this that are tearing apart the country... The development on the Bolsa Chica reservation will be a travesty to the heritage of your state. These actions will rob Native Americans of their history by building over their land and graves. |

Native Americans were the first human inhabitants here in the USA and have been treated shamelessly by white peoples all throughout the history of this nation.
