Five Indigenous activists are being charged with felony vandalism following the toppling of a Junípero Serra statue in San Rafael on Oct. 12, also known as Indigenous Peoples’ Day. To many California Indigenous people, Serra is seen as responsible for the enslaving of Native Americans through the Spanish Mission System. Photo: Chris Tuite
