Hi Friend,
Did you know that Thursday morning, we’ll be heading to Laughlin, NV to
tell the Bureau of Land Management and the Department of Interior that we
want Avi Kwa Ame to be our nation’s next national monument?
Avi Kwa Ame (Pronunciation: Ah-VEE kwa-meh) is sacred to 12 Yuman speaking
tribes and is at the center of their creation stories and spiritual
ideology. Located between the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and the
Nevada/California border, Avi Kwa Ame, the Mojave name for Spirit
Mountain, could be Nevada’s 4th national monument! Covering nearly 450,000
acres in southwestern Nevada, it’s rich in history and beauty. The
proposed national monument includes petroglyphs; historic mining- and
pioneer-era artifacts; rare and threatened wildlife such as the Mojave
Desert tortoise and desert bighorn sheep.
This is where you come in, Friend!
Tribal leaders, Avi Kwa Ame monument supporters, and community members are
traveling to Laughlin and you’re invited! During the hearing, folks will
tell the panel why they want to honor Avi Kwa Ame. [ [link removed] ]Are you down for a
