Diverse Coalitions Come Together To Protest in Denver, Colorado, and the Sturgis Rally in South Dakota In Light of Self Confessed Pedophile Ted Nugent For Bigotry Against Native American / Indigenous Peoples
Our Chicana-led / Latina-led voter group is standing with the American Indian Movement and Urban Warriors Society against bigotry and Ted Nugent. Protests by diverse backgrounds led and/or supported by the American Indian Movement, Urban Warriors Society and Chicano activists are underway to protest Ted Nugent for his hate-filled remarks against our Native American brothers:
Protest No. 1: Begins today, July 30, 2014 at 6:00 pm near the Gothic Theater 3263 S Broadway, Englewood, Colorado 80113
Protest No. 2: Begins August 6, 2014 at 6:00 pm near the Full Throttle Saloon 12997 SD Highway 34, Sturgis, South Dakota 57785
Scores of negative reviews in support of our Native Americans are being given to the Gothic Theatre and Full Throttle Saloon because it appears they choose bigotry and profits over principle. Casinos have already shut down Ted Nugent concerts after he referred to our Native American brothers and sisters as "dirty vermin" and less than human. Ted Nugent was booked to play a concert at the Coeur d'Alene Casino Resort Hotel in Worley, Idaho, on August 4 -- but the show has been canceled due to concern over what the tribe called the rocker's "racist and hate-filled remarks." According to Ultimate Classic Rock: "Following last week’s decision by an Idaho casino to cancel a Ted Nugent concert, another venue has done the same. The Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, WA has removed his Aug. 2-3 shows from their calendar. Protests of the Gothic Theatre in Denver are now underway as Chicano activists such as Rudy Gonzales stand with Native American leaders to ensure the Ted Nugent Colorado concert doesn't take place. If the Ted Nugent concert in Denver continues -- an all out boycott against the Gothic will occur. Even though the Native American population is too small for the likes of the Gothic Theatre to worry about in the Denver area, our national group is making a stand with our Native brothers and putting our Chicano/Latino/Hispanic population and economic buying power behind this cause. The State of Colorado is one of the top ten states in our Union with regard to Chicano/Latino/Hispanic buying economic buying power, and we are committed to building a better Native American and Indigenous coalition against bigotry.
In South Dakota, Lakota Warriors are on a mission to put Ted Nugent in a concert stranglehold as they expose him as a man unworthy of a loincloth to begin with. More Ted Nugent protests are building momentum as a result of his racist Native American Comments. South Dakota is home to several Lakota leaders like "United Urban Warrior Society" with James Magaska Swan at the helm.

We are officially asking you “Full Throttle Saloon” in Sturgis South Dakota to cancel the “Ted Nugent” concert scheduled to be held on August 6th, 2014.
Due to his racist comments toward Native American’s, his disrespect for woman (whom we deem sacred), His disrespect for our veterans (They are the Warriors who protect us) and his pedophilia mentality toward our children! (They are our future).
If this concert continues as scheduled “WE WILL” rally and protest! And we will not stop on the August 7th or after the rally is over. We have contacted national and local media on this issue including Sturgis local City Government and your Mayor, Monday I will contact South Dakota Secretary of Tribal relations and the Governor of South Dakota. We will continue to remind the world about his racism and rants as well as those who support him…That’s you!
