Tucson, AZ: Banner Dropped in Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en

Action report submitted anonymously to It’s Going Down.

On Friday Feb. 14^th,, underneath the dim light of a fuzzy peach and purple desert sunrise our restless souls dropped a banner from the train bridge that crosses Broadway Ave. in downtown Tucson, AZ that reads “All Eyes on Wet’suwet’en.” Inspired by the train blockades and actions in the north, we chose to drop the banner on a train bridge with hopes of causing a disruption in train traffic when the pigs retrieve it.

We have watched with heavy hearts the ongoing invasion of the Wet’suwet’en territory and send our thoughts and solidarity to those fighting for their self-determination and the preservation of the land and ecosystems they have been one with for millennia. While there may be vast distances between us, we stand in solidarity with the fierce resistance at Unis’tot’en, the people of Wet’suwet’en, and with the creatures and land that they fearlessly defend.
