Forced Navajo Relocation Continues on Big Mountain

( – promoted by navajo)

“Springtime” continues, as “BIA Hopi Agency Police and Rangers are patrolling this region (Big Mountain) where a few traditional elders continue to live and also resist federal mandates to relocate.”

Obama: Stop the Peabody Mine Expansion on Black Mesa

As we speak, there exist a state of fear and anxiety in a traditional community at Big Mountain in the heart of Black Mesa. And as we speak, the federally deputized officers of the BIA Hopi Agency Police and Rangers are patrolling this region where a few traditional elders continue to live and also resist federal mandates to relocate.

First of all, I suggest readingAmerica’s West Bank (Edited and New Info.) for an overview of the dire situation, if you’re unfamiliar with it.  I’ll say what I want to at the very end.

Dineh resister and elder, Pauline Whitesinger, has stood her ground since 1977 when the BIA tried to build a range unit fence within the lands partitioned to the neighboring tribe, the (modern and progressive) Hopis. Pauline still believes in the old ways by upholding aboriginal rights and treaty rights and because of BIA-Hopi restriction on new contruction and her deteriorating ceremonial hogan, she replaced and rebuilt a new hogan. The BIA Indian police are constantly taken photographs of her residence, her neighbors that come to see her, her non-Indian volunteer helpers, and her grandchildren that come to visit. The police do not attempt to talk to her or answer to her concerns and requests.

This area known as the Hopi Partitioned Lands still has Dineh residents and has been made an isolated area, and this is allowing the federal government to do as they please with these last, traditional peoples. Navajo Nation President Joe Shirley, Jr. has even made numerous comments that the Dineh resistance at Big Mountain “a lost cause and a closed case” meaning that these Dineh are to never be thought of, again. Meaning that these Dineh, who are my Big Mountain relatives, need to be erased from the state of the Navajo Nation and perhaps, Pauline is right when she says, “we are in way of Peabody, profit, revenues, and industrial jobs.”

It’s high time that Barack Black Eagle, which means “”one who helps people throughout the land -” lives up to his name.

REPEAL “THE NAVAJO-HOPI LAND SETTLEMENT ACT OF 1974” (P.L. 93-531): IT ENFORCES THE METHODS OF GENOCIDE BY POPULATION REMOVAL AND COAL MINING EXPANSIONS

And after he repeals the Relocation Act, he should sign the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, to help ensure that it never happens again.

If that upsets people enough that it ends up on his desk, then good.

  1.   Sadly if you think obama is on our side,(meaning all of us) you are sadly mistaken. The way our political system works, is they use either a democrat or republican to push whichever section of their agend is more pertinent at the time. Sure a specific candidate might be better for a certain group on the surface, but they are all leading us to the same direction. Included in our new bailout package(notice the only ones being bailed out are the ones who caused the problem) is what is called the “smart grid”. They tell us the electrical lines in america are outdated.(what the copper is rotting hmm didn know it could) So this new “smart grid” will be set up, built into the system they will literally be able to know if you are home, which room your in and even who is home. all from the electric company. Im not exactly sure how it does this, but it certainly does or atleast they claim it does. supposedly it is so if you leave one room in the future they could turn off lights in the room you left. or if you are not home they will shut your stuff off.

       Couple that with the newer version of the smart ID that unlike the first oneactually has a RFID chip in it that can be read from satellites. If you have never been on google earth or google maps check it out. And thats free. Our nazi government is making laws that we literally (even BABIES) have to have this RFID chipped card that is readable from space. So like some hitler wet dream they can watch us in our home on the way to work, in the middle of NOWWHERE, because if you do not show them your id on demand, they literally can arrest you on the spot, and detain you until you prove who you are. Albuquerque new mexico already has laws that force you to chip ALL cats and dogs, or if you refuse you can give them a tatoo like in the nazi death camps. These implanted chips actually cause cancer as well, since they magnify the electro magnetic energies we are all around.
     I have some extremely remote new mexican land, my unlce is a surveyor in albuequerque, he actually told me in a couple years(this was about 2 years ago) that his team will be putting sensors all over the remote areas of new mexico and I assume other states. They are also working on a way to use the chips that laws now have to eventually make EVERY head of cattle have chips, they are working on making these chipped cows into a moving collection of data retrivers. pinpointing things for the satellites as they walk around, we are literally having a virtual reality system being built around us
      like sim city or another video game except WE ARE THE SIMS.
      barack obama is right on the drawing room table for much of this, otherwise he wouldnt be our president now, sure he SEEMS better than mccain, but they both work for the same peoples. Like bob hope once said one party cannot fool everyone that why we hav two political parties.
      If you think the remoteness of the reservations can save you your also sadly mistaken. Although at first im sure it would. But if society breaks down rather then submits to this nazism, then the tribes, mormons, amis and others like this, will be bombarded with people looking for food, who know these groups might have some.
      I strongly advise besides saving food of course to save large amounts of seeds, to give to the stragglers and send them on their way.

      Also I might add since I dont think anyone read my last post(please look for it) that, washington dc doesnt have senators or congresmen since they are not a state. The same is true of the reservations right? The reservations could try to force the issue, no taxation without representaion. If you jump in now while dc, is fighting for this right there is no sane reason you shouldnt be able to get your own senators and congressmen.
      Ive noticed this is a very informed posts on many issues, you should read on current political issues, and help. Or what happened to the great peoples of this country will be only a drop in the bucket as we all watch slowly our own enslavement(and stand by watching the boob tube)  

  2. you’ve had your say to natives so I hope you feel all better. Now it would be better for all concerned if you turn your attentions towards your own people and come back when you have them all convinced.

  3.     I will gladly leave since this is of course a forum for native but I hope you do not mind if I add one last thought, please read my long post if you did not.

      I do talk to “my people” as you say. Sadly though they are like you and see in black and white. Im not claiming to know your mind of course, but Im referring to you thinking you are not my people. we are the human race not the red race or white or yellow races. We all share a light in this rainbow. sadly most of us have not yet learned this simple truth, heck most of us still buy coca cola and hersheys chocolate yet actual slaves grow the cocoa. A couple years back the coca cola company actually dropped many of them in the ocean because they tried to unite for rights,they were easily replaced. And this barely made the news.

       Maybe someday we will all remember the sacred dance, and together share this world as we should have ong ago.
    Good luck to all of you, and no need to tell me to go away again, I just wanted to share some thoughts. I hope some of you look up the larger post I had since I feel it has some good thouts in there. You all have a good time
