Some of the challenges of organizing are questions about whose voices are heard and what gets taken up as a "cause", even in some seemingly 'progressive" organizing. With this in mind Left Coast Events envisions organizing in a way that acknowledges where we are (on unceded Indigenous Territories), while prioritizing the voices of those most impacted by the destruction of land and communities.
This is unceded Indigenous territories and we acknowledge and thank the Coast Salish Peoples.
** Coast Salish is not the traditional Indigenous name for the people in this region. The term is used to encompass a number of Indigenous peoples, including Esquimalt, Hul'qumi'num, Klahoose, Lekwungen, Musqueam, OStlq'emeylem, Pentlatch, Sliammon, Shishalh, Skxwú7mesh-ulh Úxwumixw, Stó:lo, Straits, Tsleil-Waututh, T’Sou-ke, WSÁNE?, and Xwemalhkwu. more information here..
Left Coast Events is still accepting donations in the $5-$20 range. Cheques may be made out to VIPIRG.
