Coronavirus is still on the rise.
Navajo Nation is currently experiencing the biggest spike of coronavirus cases in the world, with more cases than any place in the United States.
Since forcing their relocation away from their native lands, the United States Federal Government has not provided the Navajo with running water, paved roads, internet, or any of the so-called essentials of living that many of us enjoy across the country. And yet, the Navajo have managed to protect their tribal elders, and with them, their memories. Their stories. Their culture.
Now, many of those tribal elders — among others — are at risk again. Only this time, an invisible enemy is wreaking havoc on their communities. And unfortunately, many homes lack the educational resources to learn about the virus and how to protect against it.
In short: they need all the help we can give them.
We at The Comedy Resistance are committed to solidarity, and we're partnering with organizers to provide the Navajo Nation with reusable, hand-washable face masks, sanitizer, and vital information on how to protect themselves and their community during this pandemic.
We need your help to reach this goal — our generous supplier in Los Angeles has agreed to sell us masks at cost, so $1 = 1 mask!
Your donation will ensure these critical supplies are placed in the hands of those who need them most as The Comedy Resistance expands distribution on-the-ground to the heart of Navajo Nation.
Chip in $27, or anything you can today! This is no time to give zero bucks. Thank you!
