Marta Rodriguez , of the San Jose de la Zorra Kumeyaay Community , poses in front of the wall that has divided her people and dug up sacred land .

I WOULD LIKE TO START BY TAKING THE TIME TO WELCOME ALL THE NEW SUBSCRIBERS who have joined as News from Native California readers . The popularity of the Summer 2020 issue has brought so many of you to the magazine and we are so grateful to you for supporting the work we do in illuminating California tribal voices . It is incredible that in spite of times like these — when we are required to be physically distant due to a global pandemic — we are still building community .
For those who may not know what to expect from this magazine , News from Native California is published quarterly by Heyday and is devoted to the vibrant cultures , arts , languages , histories , social justice movements , and stories of California ’ s diverse Indian peoples .
We have some particularly special features in this issue . One thing that you might have noticed is that this magazine includes a special insert about the Parallel Worlds program .

For this , we partnered with the Advocates for Indigenous California Language Survival ( AICLS ). AICLS worked with the Owens Valley Paiute Shoshone Cultural Center and the Manzanar National Historic Site to put together programming that centered around the parallel experiences of those who were placed in Manzanar , a Japanese internment camp , during World War II and those who are descendants of the Nüümü tribal people whose reservation homelands neighbor the site of the camp . This program was made possible thanks to a grant from the California State Library ’ s California Civil Liberties Education Program .
