DoomsdaysCWBREAKING! <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LeonardPeltier" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LeonardPeltier</a> Left Prison on Tuesday MorningBy <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BrendaNorrell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BrendaNorrell</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CensoredNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CensoredNews</a>, Feb. 18, 2025 "Leonard Peltier will be welcomed home today, and greeted with signs along the roadway and a community feast. 'In The Honor Of' meal will be held at the Sky Dancer Casino Event Center in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BelcourtNorthDakota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BelcourtNorthDakota</a>, on February 18th, 2025. The meal will start at 6:00 p.m. 'Let's celebrate Leonard with the honor and glory that he deserves,' Peltier's family said."'As Leonard arrives on home to the Turtle Mountains, supporters of Leonard's are welcome to come and join the celebration in giving Leonard a warm welcome home by holding signs, honking, cheering and clapping with cars lined up starting from the reservation line coming from Rolla stretching into Belcourt. Please stay safe, no standing on the highway and stay on the shoulder. Please do not leave any signs behind, take them with you.' "'As Leonard passes through, we are not allowed to follow him, please respect this. Following Leonard's welcome home at the reservation line everyone is welcome to gather for a meal in the honor of Leonard at the Sky Dancer Casino Event Center for stew, bangs and gullet as this is the first meal that Leonard requested for when he returns home.'"'We do not know yet as of this post of Leonard's restrictions if he will be able to attend the meal.'"Leonard is an 80-year-old elder with health problems and his first day of being released after nearly 50 years of incarceration will be a lot for Leonard to comprehend.

DoomsdaysCWSome good news! Though potential contamination from long-term storage needs to be addressed (what else is new).<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EPA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EPA</a> to Relocate Toxic <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UraniumMine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UraniumMine</a> Waste from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NavajoNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NavajoNation</a> By Neely Bardwell, January 08, 2025 "The Environmental Protection Agency will move <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uranium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#uranium</a> mine waste from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ChurchrockNewMexico" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChurchrockNewMexico</a> to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RedRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RedRock</a> regional landfill where it can be safely stored forever. "The federal agency signed an action memo to transport radioactive waste at the Quivira Mining Co. Churchrock Mine to a disposal site at the Red Rock regional landfill about six miles east of the Village of Thoreau. The cleanup will begin in early 2025 and continue for 6-8 years."For the Red Water Pond Road Community Association (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RWPRCA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RWPRCA</a>), which has advocated for waste removal since 2006, the decision marks a significant shift in addressing <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UraniumContamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UraniumContamination</a> on Navajo land."'Removing the mine waste from our community will protect our health and finally put us back on a positive track to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/H%C3%B3zh%C7%AB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hózhǫ</a> (balance),' said Teracita Keyanna, RPWPRCA executive committee member. 'I think this decision empowers <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/grassroots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grassroots</a> organizations like ours and our allies to continue to advocate and educate to clean up hundreds of abandoned uranium mines that threaten our <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Din%C3%A9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Diné</a> communities every day.'"RWPRCA President Edith Hood said the community has dealt with the impact of uranium mining since the late 1960s. Commercial mining began at the site under <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KerrMcGee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KerrMcGee</a> Corporation, which later became the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/QuiviraMiningCompany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#QuiviraMiningCompany</a>. The operation extracted an estimated 1.3 million tons of uranium ore before closing in 1986. The Navajo Nation currently has more than 520 documented <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AbandonedMines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AbandonedMines</a>, with no disposal facilities for uranium waste within 350 miles of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TribalLands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TribalLands</a>."'Many of us suffer chronic health problems and a degraded homeland as a result,' Hood said. 'We advocate for a regional approach to addressing remediation of nearly 100 abandoned uranium mines in the Eastern Navajo Agency. We are committed to making sure the removal of mine waste from our community does not threaten the health and safety of our Diné neighbors.'"Previous attempts to address the waste proved unsuccessful. In 2011 and 2013, the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved a plan to place 1 million cubic yards of waste from NECRM on top of the existing tailings pile located half a mile from RWPRC village. Effectively, neither of those wastes were removed from the communities."The <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RedRockLandfill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RedRockLandfill</a> currently handles municipal waste from McKinley and Cibola counties and Navajo Nation communities as far away as Tuba City. The planned <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UraniumDisposalCell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UraniumDisposalCell</a> will occupy a separate area of the 640-acre site adjacent to the shuttered <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Escalante" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Escalante</a> power plant."The Northwest New Mexico Regional Solid Waste Authority (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NNMRSWA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NNMRSWA</a>), which owns the landfill, must show that its operations can protect <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GroundWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GroundWater</a>, air and soil, while safeguarding public health for decades to come. The New Mexico Environment Department will oversee long-term monitoring of the site."Chris Shuey, who has documented mining and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/milling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#milling</a> impacts in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Churchrock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Churchrock</a> area for 40 years as an environmental health specialist at Southwest Research and Information Center in Albuquerque, said relocating uranium waste is essential for tribal communities. "'Removing mine wastes from Navajo communities to engineered, regional disposal sites is a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PublicHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PublicHealth</a> imperative,' Shuey said, noting that more than half of all Navajo chapters have at least one source of unhealthy uranium exposure. 'The federal government must continue looking for suitable sites for long-term disposal of mine wastes to protect current and future Navajo populations.'"'This decision will remove over 1 million cubic yards of waste that has haunted the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RedWaterPondRoad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RedWaterPondRoad</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PipelineRoad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PipelineRoad</a> communities for too long,' EPA Pacific Southwest Regional Administrator Martha Guzman said in a statement. "'This solution is a compromise that will get <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RadioactiveWaste" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RadioactiveWaste</a> in this area off of the Navajo Nation as soon as possible,' Navajo Nation President <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BuuNygren" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BuuNygren</a> said in the EPA statement. 'It’s not everything the three affected communities would wish for but it’s action in the right direction now rather than in the future. Most importantly, this will protect our people from harmful exposure.'"Source: <a href="https://nativenewsonline.net/environment/epa-to-relocate-toxic-mine-waste-from-navajo-nation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://nativenewsonline.net/environment/epa-to-relocate-toxic-mine-waste-from-navajo-nation</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NoNukes</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NoWar</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoMiningWithoutConsent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NoMiningWithoutConsent</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoUraniumMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NoUraniumMining</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UraniumMills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UraniumMills</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NukingTheNavajo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NukingTheNavajo</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Genocide</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeAmericanNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NativeAmericanNews</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HaulNo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HaulNo</a>

In Apache Stronghold v. United States, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals refused to stop the federal government from transferring Oak Flat to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ResolutionCopper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ResolutionCopper</a>, a foreign-owned mining company that plans to turn the site into a massive mining crater, ending <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Apache" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Apache</a> religious practices forever (Watch video linked below to learn more). "The Apaches and their allies hosted a day of prayer outside the Court as they asked the Justices to save the spiritual lifeblood of their people. Since time immemorial, Western Apaches and other Native peoples have gathered at Oak Flat, outside of present-day Superior, Arizona, for sacred religious ceremonies that cannot take place anywhere else. Known in Apache as Chi’chil Biłdagoteel, Oak Flat is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and has been protected from mining and other harmful practices for decades. These protections were targeted in December 2014 when a last-minute provision was inserted into a must- pass defense bill authorizing the transfer of Oak Flat to the Resolution Copper company. Resolution Copper is a foreign-owned mining company that plans to turn the sacred site into a two-mile-wide and 1,100-foot-deep crater. The majority owner of Resolution Copper, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RioTinto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RioTinto</a>, sparked international outrage when it deliberately destroyed 46,000-year-old <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Indigenous</a> rock shelters at one of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Australia</a>’s most significant cultural sites. “'Oak Flat is our Mt. Sinai—the most sacred place where generations of Apache have come to connect with our Creator, our faith, and our land,' said Dr. Wendsler Nosie Sr. of Apache Stronghold. 'We pray the Justices will protect Oak Flat and ensure that our place of worship is not treated differently simply because it lacks four walls and a steeple.” Apache Stronghold—a coalition of Apaches, other Native peoples, and non-Native allies—filed this lawsuit in January 2021 seeking to halt the proposed mine at Oak Flat. The mine is opposed by 21 of 22 federally recognized tribal nations in Arizona and by the National Congress of American Indians. Meanwhile, national polling indicates that 74% of Americans support protecting Oak Flat. The Ninth Circuit ruled earlier this year that the land transfer is not subject to federal laws protecting religious freedom. But five judges dissented, writing that the court 'tragically err[ed]' by refusing to protect Oak Flat. After unsuccessfully asking all 29 judges on the Ninth Circuit to rehear the case, Apache Stronghold has filed their appeal to the Supreme Court."'Blasting the birthplace of Apache religion into oblivion would be an egregious violation of our nation’s promise of religious freedom for people of all faiths,' said Luke Goodrich, vice president and senior counsel at Becket. 'The Court should uphold its strong record of defending <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReligiousFreedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReligiousFreedom</a> by ensuring that the Apaches can continue worshiping at Oak Flat as they have for centuries.' "In addition to Becket, Apache Stronghold is represented by Erin Murphy of Clement & Murphy PLLC, Professor Stephanie Barclay of Georgetown Law School, and attorneys Michael V. Nixon and Clifford Levenson.
