    Crossing Worlds Hopi ProjectsSedona AZ (December 19, 2020) – Hopi youth support is the focus of Crossing Worlds Hopi Projects’ 22nd annual Hopi Holiday Project. “We welcome monetary donations to help us purchase learning enhancement gifts and hygiene supplies for the 350 youth in the village of Shungopavi and for the 100 plus children in foster care”, says director Sandra Cosentino.  “The youth are doing at-home learning in their remote villages in northeastern Arizona and these items would be very helpful.”

    Hopi people have maintained contact with numerous Verde Valley ancestral and prayer shrine sites since their exodus six hundred years ago.  “Traditional Hopi people believe these sites are still alive with the presence of their ancestors–and today’s Hopi conduct annual pilgrimages here to make prayer offerings for the continuance of life,” Cosentino says.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
