Two Native activists arrested in border wall protest at Organ Pipe Cactus NMon

TUCSON — Two O'odham activists protesting the building of the border wall were arrested Wednesday after blocking construction activity near Quitobaquito Springs in the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument.


The springs in southwestern Arizona are sacred to the Tohono O'odham and Hia-Ced O'odham, who lived in the area as recently as three generations ago, and are one of very few natural sources of water along the vast, rugged Arizona borderlands.
