[Film] The #ApacheStronghold defending #sacred #OakFlat land from a #CopperMine
The Real News Network
May 21, 2024
"In the heart of the #Arizona high desert lies a battle for the soul of the land. The ancient, sacred grounds of #Apache #Native territory are under threat from a looming giant — a massive copper mine that promises riches for the locals, and a pathway to the so-called green transition. But, as is often the case, it comes at a cost.
"The #SanCarlosApache tribe calls it Chi’chil Bildagoteel; English speakers call it Oak Flat. It sits on a mountainous plateau within a 17.3-kilometer oasis in the #TontoNationalForest. #RioTinto and #BHP, two of the world’s biggest mining companies, have staked their claim here through a joint venture called #ResolutionCopper. For over 10 years they’ve been lobbying governments for the right to build a colossal mine that would cover roughly 7,000 acres of surface area, and extend more than a mile into the ground.
"The only thing that stands in their way is the #resistance of the Apache Stronghold, a nonprofit community organization of #Natives and non-Natives uniting to counter ongoing #colonization, defend holy sites and protect freedom of religion, which was created to protect Chi’chil Bildagoteel.

#Akwesasne8 DISMISSED. #NewYorkPowerAuthority fails to produce documents necessary to move forward.
By Akwesasne 8, via #CensoredNews, Nov. 12, 2024
"The charges of Conspiracy to a Felony, and #Trespassing against the six of the Akwesasne 8, who appeared today, were dismissed today at Massena Town Court. The District Attorney stated that New York Power Authority (#NYPA) did not produce appropriate documents to move forward
"Researchers for the Akwesasne 8 had gone to the St. Lawrence County Office for Deeds and Records to find a Deed/Land Title showing NYPA ownership. There is no record. When discovery documents were offered to the Akwesasne 8, each asked whether the documents contained a Title to the land on which the Akwesasne 8 were arrested. The District Attorney implied such documents were not part of the discovery packets.
"In March 2022, Federal Judge Kahn of the Northern New York District of US Federal Court, ruled that New York State possession of #Mohawk land is a violation of the #NonintercourseAct which prohibits land transfer of Indian land to non-Indians without Congressional approval.
"On May 22, 2024 eight Kanienke’háka were arrested for Trespassing at #Niionenhiasekówahne (Barnhart Island). Seven of the eight were charged with Conspiracy to a Felony. One person was charged with a Felony.
There is a long history of #Onkwehonwe relations to Niionenhiasekowá:ne (Barnhart Island) - from the Dish With One Spoon Agreement, to Onkwehonwe families living on the island, and continue today through Kanienke’háka assertion of hunting, fishing, tree tapping, and #MedicineGathering liberties.
"The Akwesasne Mohawk #LandClaimSettlement agreement seeks to sever Onkwehonwe relationship to Niionenhiasekowá:ne, formally ceding the island's title to New York State for $70 million and subjecting our hunting and gathering rights to foreign governments.
The Onkwehonwe that began construction at Niionenhiasekowá:ne acted in assertion of Kanienke’háka inherent and original rights as well as the pre-existing governance of Kaienerekowa.
“'The Band Council, Tribe, state and federal governments are outside Kaienerekowa governance as younger governmental entities cannot and will not ostracize us from our lands and waters,' said one of the Akwesasne 8.
"'We are going back to Niionenhiasekowá:ne because it is Kanienke’háka land,' a group of the Akwesasne 8 stated."
