The Pokanoket Nation has set up an encampment in Bristol, RI to reclaim their sacred land Potumtuk (known as Mt Hope)  from Brown University. The Po Metacom Camp currently has about 50 people who are there for the long-term. 

I am organizing a weekly food drop off for them and am looking for donations of fresh fruits and vegetables. If you are interested in donating or would like to help with this project please contact Celyne Camen @ celynecamen at gmail.com
