The fight isn't over to #ProtectTheSacred!
"#NDNCollective, a Rapid City-based nonprofit that advocates for #IndigenousRights, is among the lawsuit plaintiffs.
" 'From the #LandDefenders who occupied two active drill pads for a week, to fighting in the courts through multiple lawsuits and a temporary restraining order, today’s win is multi-faceted and offers a blueprint for future #LandDefense fights,' NDN said Friday in a press release.
"Future fights include one scheduled for the week of May 18. The state Board of Minerals and Environment is scheduled to conduct a hearing in Hot Springs on a proposal to conduct exploratory drilling for #uranium in the southern #BlackHills.
"That project would be near #CravenCanyon, where the rock walls are carved with Native American petroglyphs believed to be thousands of years old."

"While neglecting their demands, the government has repeatedly responded to #Indigenous protests against the violation of their land rights with heavy crackdowns. Its repression of communities that resisted the #InteroceanicCorridor has ranged from setting fishermen’s houses on fire in Oaxaca to evicting and arresting Ayuujk indigenous protesters there."

Five week trial begins in lawsuit launched by photojournalist Amber Bracken, arrested by RCMP in 2021, and news outlet The Narwhal, claiming wrongful arrest, wrongful detention and violation of Charter rights.
Víctor Colindres, a well-known defender of the territory, was killed with a firearm today in his community of San Antonio Sejá in the city of Livingston, Izabal in Guatemala. He participated in numerous rallies against an excessive issuing of mining licenses in the country throughout the year.
We recently spoke to Brazilian environmental activist Angela Mendes, the daughter of Amazonian forest defender and labor leader Chico Mendes, who was assassinated by ranchers in December 1988. She discussed her father’s legacy and her ongoing work to protect the Amazon rainforest from encroachment by ranching and mining industries. “They come here, build their companies, bringing death to the territories, bringing death for the forests and threatening the peoples of the forest,” Mendes said, speaking to Democracy Now! at the COP30 U.N. climate summit in Belém.
Thousands of Amazonian land defenders, both Indigenous peoples and their allies, have traveled to the COP30 U.N. climate conference in Belém, Brazil. On Friday night, an Indigenous-led march arrived at the perimeter of the COP’s “Blue Zone,” a secure area accessible only to those bearing official summit credentials. The group stormed security, kicking down a door before the United Nations police contained the protest. “We decided we needed to stop this COP,” says Alessandra Korap Munduruku, a leader of the protest, who joined us for an extended interview. “We are the ones that are saying what the forest is demanding. We are the ones that are saying what the river is asking for. We are going through a lot of violence in our territories.”
