An illustrated poster featuring two individuals, a woman on the left with long hair, beaded jewelry, a headband, and a traditional pattern, and a man on the right with glasses and short hair. They are facing opposite directions with a large vintage microphone between them, adorned with feather decorations. The background shows a warm sunset with wheat fields and a city skyline, and the text reads, "We're Still Here with Simon and Julie." An informational graphic from the Navajo Nation Office of the President titled "For Our Urban Diné Relatives: What to Do if Confronted by Immigration Agents." The document provides guidance for individuals if they are approached or questioned by immigration agents in public or at home. For public encounters, it advises verifying agent identity, not resisting, exercising the right to remain silent if detained, documenting the interaction, and reporting it to the ACLU or legal support organizations. For home visits, it advises not opening the door without a valid warrant and explicitly stating, "I do not consent to your entry." It also recommends requesting to see a warrant signed by a judge before allowing any action to proceed. The graphic has official seals from the Navajo Nation and uses a clear, structured layout with bullet points for readability.
