    Sedona AZ (January 27, 2012) – Pink Jeep Tours hosted Big Park, West Sedona, and the Sedona Charter Schools for the R.O.C.K.S. Program in the month of January.

    Created by Pink Jeep Tours, R.O.C.K.S. stands for Reinforcing Our Children’s Knowledge of Sedona. This is an off-road excursion that encourages the love of nature and a respect for the local eco-systems as well as Native American history. The complimentary program takes fourth grade students from the area schools on the Ancient Ruins tour to the Honanki Ruins, a cliff dwelling and rock art site where Sinagua Indians lived from AD1100 to 1300.

    Guides from Pink Jeep Tours show the students how the Native Sinagua used plants for food, medicine, and to make textiles. Students also learn the difference between a petroglyph and pictograph with examples of the rock art in person.

    Three schools had the opportunity to take part in the program in January and two schools; Desert Star and St. Joseph’s Catholic, will enjoy the program in February.

    This program provides hands on learning and gives the children an up close and personal lesson on the history and treasures lying in their own backyards.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
