Honoring our Indigenous Women Activists' Speaking Tour June 11-20 with:
Carrie Dann - Western Shoshone Nation
Louise Benally- Dine' Nation, Big Mountain
Rosalee Little Thunder -Sicangu Lakota Nation
The Federal Government's has recently introduced bills and actions of extended aggression towards the Western Shoshone Nation, and the Dine' People of Big Mountain. And, the Dept of Livestock continues to slaughter the last remaining wild Buffalo. These Indigenous women representatives have and are presenting these issues to the United Nations, and lawsuits in U.S. Courts. The U.N. Commission on Racism has recently issued a full Declaration in regard to the situation of the Western Shoshone, and has ordered the U.S. to "cease and desist against" any further actions and immediately iniate dialoque in regard to the ongoing human rights violations.
And, the Western Shoshone and others have filed a successful injunction in court to delay the reinstated bombing at the Nevada Test site, called "Divine Strike".
Dine and Hopi representatives have a lawsuit in court against a coal mining multinational for the depletion of our 2nd largest Aquafir. And, they are preparing injunctions to stop a bill in Senate that is the final relocation of the traditional Dine' People at Big Mountain.
Their work has, and will, set precedence in national and international courts. We invite you to a very inspiring event. And to help Honor the work they have done and are doing.
