About Border Resistance
This website serves as an information source and network supporting the protection of our public lands along the Arizona-Mexican border. We are here to use our democratic rights and peaceful direct action to protect these lands and its inhabitants from the pointless and destructive construction of the border wall - particularly the illegal container-wall begun by Gov. Ducey. This is a space to learn, engage and contribute to the crucial work at hand.
Land Acknowledgement
We live, work and recreate on stolen land. The Border Wall Resistance recognizes and respects Indigenous Peoples as the original stewards of the land in the past, present and future.
Truth and acknowledgement are critical to building mutual respect and connection across all barriers of heritage and difference. These are efforts to preserve the ancestral and occupied lands of the Chiricahua Apache, Tohono O'odham, and many more who may call this place home. We pay respect to their elders past and present. Please take a moment to consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us together to continue the defense of this land.
Our land acknowledgement evolves as our own understanding of our work in solidarity to Indigenous struggle grows. We would love to hear thoughts or feedback from you.
