Boycott Cal State San Bernardino Pow-Wow
It is with a sad heart that the American Indian Movement of San Bernardino
must request a boycott of the Pow-Wow at Cal State University San
Bernardino, on the last weekend in February.
California State University at San Bernardino is being sued for racism
against the Native
American Elder. There is several incidences of racism on the campus and
there are racist material being introduced into the curriculum in classes so
we are asking people to please boycott any Indian activities on this campus.
This campus no longer has an Indian club because the
person who headed this club, myself, after filing a 20 million dollar
lawsuit, was verbally attacked in the parking lot and it is no longer safe
for me to have a club on-campus.
We must stop the abuse of Native Americans in the school systems, the only
way to stop it is to quit
putting our money, our time, and our efforts into the more abusive
schools. When we have Pow-Wows and such on these campuses they benefit
because they look "Indians friendly." please help and boycott San Bernardino
University the last week end in February.
Thank you,
Pamelalee Bailey-Shimizu
Executive Director American Indian Movement San
Bernardino Area.
[Ed Note: The committee for the Pow-Wow at Cal State San Bernardino,
erroniously listed as UC San Bernardino in our last paper, called to inform
us that they have cancelled the pow-wow.  They and the Cross Cultural Club
are looking for a new venue to hold the pow-wow, a location not affiliated
with Cal State San Bernardino.]
