On January 19, 2024, we celebrated the Stop the Hate event at the Central Cultural de la Raza with powerful storytelling about humanity and justice for our national and international community. The event was filled with delicious homemade tamales and homegrown sentiment about the plight of the Native Zapatistas for humane treatment and freedom of speech.

We were learned about Irish heroines and social issues from Alastair Running Bear Mulholland’s dad, Patrick. El Presidente spoke of the social issues affecting the Kumeyaay like health care and political issues. The evening was rounded off with a presentation for Rose Davis for her dedication to resolving pertinent societal issues in the media. The night concluded with addressing serious human rights ,children’s rights and freedom of speech.
