We invite you to come to the Richmond Art Center to see the beautiful quilts of the Refinery Corridor Healing Walks! Save the date of March 2, 2024 for a panel and celebration. Exhibit opens January 27th and ends March 17th.

From 2014-2017, Idle No More SF Bay organized a series of Indigenous women-led Healing Walks along the Refinery Corridor or the San Francisco Bay. Four walks every year for four years connected the communities impacted by 5 oil refineries along our coastline with each other and with communities impacted by extraction, transport, and refining of fossil fuels across the Americas and the world.

We walked for clean air, clean water, healthy soil, and a vibrantly beautiful future for the generations to come. During the walks, we would stop periodically to pray at the refineries, to educate the public about the harms, and share stories of both devastation and hope from communities across the world. Every step was a prayer.

At the end of each walk, we invited walkers to deeply imagine what a vibrantly healthy world would be. We then asked them to share their visions for the future on muslin squares, in pictures or words, or both. Sewers and quilters from our community and beyond volunteered many hours to sew these vision squares into twelve beautiful quilts.

We invite you to come and see these envisioning quilts and explore the hopes and dreams of those who walked with us.

There will be an opening reception for all of the winter shows at the Richmond’s Art Center on January 27 from 2 to 4 pm. Our special tenth anniversary program for our exhibit: Many Hands, One World will be on March 2 at 11 am, including a panel sharing stories and reflections about the Healing Walks.

Join me this Monday, July 17th for "Banking on a Safe World". I am looking forward to moderating this powerful webinar with world-renowned protectors and defenders of life on Mother Earth’s belly: Bill McKibbon, Cynthia Lazaroff, Susi Snyder, Tom Goldtooth, and Tzeporah Berman.

The anti-nuclear and climate justice movements have been promoting financial divestment from fossil fuels and nuclear weapons. It is no surprise that some of the financial institutions funding fossil fuels and nuclear weapons are the same. What could happen if these two movements joined forces?

Indigenous, Native American, Indian!

On Saturday, September 8th thousands of people will be coming to San Francisco for the largest march for climate: RISE for Climate, Jobs & Justice. The Indigenous Bloc will lead the march with California Indians at the front. We are inviting Indigenous people of the Americas to march with us. It is important for you to RSVP if you are joining us: https://ca.riseforclimate.org/homepage/

This event will take place prior to the Global Climate Action Summit (GCAS), September 12th to 14th 2018. Thousands of people will be attending the Summit including elected leaders from around the world, United Nations officials, climate negotiators and those profiting from climate disruption. With California fires, droughts, heat waves and constant environmental attacks on our Tribal/Traditional lands, there is not a moment to wait.

At the end of the march there will be 50 street murals being painted to create powerful images with messaging directed at those attending GCAS. The murals will be circular, 40' in diameter. If your group or Nation is interested in "adopting" one of these murals contact the art coordinator by August 10th: [email protected]
