Update on Plains Activities
Over the course of the two weeks, we have seen one arrest, two protests, petitions, and letter writing campaigns. To top it all, members of the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community have come to Eagle Rock to help protect it from mining development. Yesterday, Cynthia Pryor pleaded not guilty which would mean it will go to a jury trial. The article below from the Huffington Post is a great article that sums up what we are all standing for. For more coverage, see these media resources below and be sure to comment where possible:

In addition, there will be a small drumming circle on Eagle Rock next Tuesday evening with local group Log Jam. If you are interested in coming up, bring your drum and some friends around 5:30pm.
