The US media is continuing its misinformation about the purpose of relocating traditional Hopis and Dineh. They claim that "relocation and partitioning of lands" is the only solution to "this intertribal conflict." Knowing the US's practice of injustices upon the Indigenous Nations of America, one must asked themselves: Does the federal government intend to protect Indian territories or cultures, or will it consider business interests over an already poverty stricten Indian communities? Would the Fed. Gov't feelthat Indian Nations of America is a higher priority over lands laden with aquifers and mineral resources? How can it be stated in the media for 25 years that "the Navajos invaded the defenseless Hopis, and occuppied the ancient Hopi lands," when there has never been any proven evidence of plunder or massacres according to the hundreds of existing archaelogical informations? Interests of mineral explorations is way more evident today, than seeing the Hopis reviving their cultures and creating new village sites on their newly awarded lands. Both of these traditional Nations have suffered the consequences of losing all of the ancient homelands. Peabody Western Coal Co. is the only thriving industrial commuity on Black Mesa/Big Mtn. Citizens of the World need to put a halt to this destruction of the sacred Mother Mountain and her ancient children!
