#Navajos Warn of Secretive Tribal Government Reform
Dine' Grassroots coalition, "spoke of the #bribes, backdoor deals and tribal government #corruption involved in the tribe's deals with #EnergyCompanies."
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 27, 2026
"Navajos warned of a secretive Navajo government reform that is underway that would change #Diné life, and silence the voices of the people for generations to come.
"#ChiliYazzie, former #Shiprock Council Delegate and Chapter President, said proposing the government reform as a 'yes or no' question for the Dine' voters on the ballot in 2026 is 'an abuse of our people.' "

2025 #UraniumFilmFestival - #TheRiverThatHarms
1987, Directed by Colleen Keane, Documentary, 45 min.
"This illuminating film documents the largest radioactive waste spill in U.S. history - a national tragedy that received little attention. With the sound of a thunderclap, 94 million gallons of water contaminated with #UraniumMining waste broke through a #UnitedNuclearCorporation storage dam in 1979. The water poured into the #PuercoRiver in #NewMexico - the main water supply for the #Navajo that live along the river, and a tributary of the major source of water for #LosAngeles. Navajo ranchers, their children, and farm animals waded through the river unaware of the danger."

#WhiteMesaUte Invite Public to Join #SpiritualWalk to Protest #UraniumMill, Oct. 4, 2025
by #CensoredNews, September 20, 2025
Excerpt: "The rally and spiritual walk is to protect the White Mesa Ute Community’s health, water, air, land, culture, and sacred sites from the nearby #EnergyFuels uranium mill and show community opposition to the mill operating as an international dumping ground for radioactive waste from North America, Japan, and Europe. All relatives and allies welcome.
"The rally on Saturday, October 4, 2025, 11 a.m. MDT will be followed by a spiritual walk to the Energy Fuels uranium mill, about five miles on relatively flat pavement. Wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water. Limited number of vehicle seats available for elders and those not able to walk the whole way.
"The White Mesa Ute Community Center in White Mesa, Utah, is just south of Blanding, Utah off Highway 191. The community center is on the west side of the highway. Turn west at the gas station
and go one block south.
"The Ute Mountain Ute Community of White Mesa and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe are concerned about #contamination from the nearby #UraniumMill and desecration of sacred sites.
"The uranium mill, owned by Energy Fuels Resources, is also where uranium ore from controversial #UraniumMines, including #PinyonPlain Mine, near the #GrandCanyon, is sent for processing; #NativeAmerican tribes, including the #HavasupaiTribe, strongly oppose that mine. As far away as #Madagascar, #IndigenousPeople strongly oppose Energy Fuels’ operations. The October 4 protest and walk are sponsored by the #WhiteMesaConcernedCommunity and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe."
