Honoring the Ancestors Prayer Relay Run: Ox Sam Camp, Nevada, Sept. 12, 2023

extractive industry continues to treat the #earth and her ancient precious #minerals as little more than profit-potential. Meanwhile, this self-dealing too often entails the wholesale #exploitation of #IndigenousPeoples and the destruction of the #SacredLands and #ecosystems upon which our communities depend.

Indigenous Peoples across northern Nevada are no strangers to this paradigm. In our newest video installment documenting the #OxSamCamp resistance,

In the time since I visited Peeheemu’huh a few months back with my father, #LakotaLaw co-director and lead counsel #ChaseIronEyes, police have made several arrests related to activism resisting the mine. The #OxSamCamp, named after one of the few to survive the 1865 massacre, is an Indigenous-led prayer camp, which serves as the base camp for the #resistance.

Ox Sam Camp – Prayerfully protecting Peehee Mu'huh from the world's largest open-pit lithium mine

Please watch the new video, produced in partnership with #OxSamCamp and the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony (#RSIC), which gives more background on the legal fights and shares powerful testimony from people including RSIC Chairman Arlan Melendez and, especially heartbreakingly, one brave, youthful camp member.

As two separate legal fights against the #mine move forward — and a hearing is scheduled for this week — the mining company is leveraging legal challenges of its own

Interior Sec. Haaland Supports Digging into #Paiute Massacre Site for Lithium

by Brenda Norrell, Censored News

Raided and terrorized by police, their Eagle Feathers taken, now Interior Sec. #DebHaaland has broken their hearts, imperiling future generations. #OxSamCamp at the Paiute Massacre Site. The People of the Ghost Dancers

"Interior Sec. Deb Haaland supports digging into the burial places of massacred Paiutes for #lithium -- and said she is doing the right thing.

"AP reports that Haaland, whose department oversees Thacker Pass, said that while she supports the right to peaceful #protests, her agency is in favor of the mine because 'the need for our clean energy economy to move forward is definitely important.'

"Haaland told The Associated Press that when her agency inherits a project from a previous administration, 'It’s our job to make sure we’re doing things according to the science, to the law.' However, the Interior Department and a federal judge are violating federal laws that protect Native American religious and burial places; #endangered species and their habitat; and the #groundwater."

#Paiute #Shoshone Court Date is Friday for Defending Massacre Site from #LithiumAmericas

May 31, 2023

Ox Sam Camp, #ThackerPass, Nevada: "I would like to ask all of you out there to kindly share this for my fellow sister warrior descendant, she stands here for her lineage through her great great grandfather Ox Sam whose family was massacred here at Thacker Pass also known as Peehee Muhu which is translated as Rotten Moon.
Due to recent events of her being served a TPO that is restricting her from accessing her Rights to her unmarked ancestral burial grounds and sacred site at Sentinel Rock by #LithiumAmerica Corporation. She now has to go back and forth to #Winnemucca 150 miles round trip where the court is being held and conducted which adds up a lot of miles and she is still looking for a Nevada attorney preferably pro indigenous rights for her legal issues filed by Lithium America a Canadian Based Corporation. So we're kindly asking you all to share these links to try and get her all the help we can do for her and to help her along as we continue to shed light and love on the current happenings at PeeHee Muhu Ox Sam Camp. (Newe Momokonee Nokutun)
Thank you for Very Much.

"The legal hearing for Dorece, Chuck, Paul, and Max is now scheduled for Friday (June 2nd) at 1:30 pm in Winnemucca. We're asking the court for an extension but it may not be granted. So that's our timeline for now. I'm not sure if supporters will be allowed in the courtroom, but if anyone wants to come out and support us feel free (although I wouldn't want to take people away from camp). For now, that's our deadline for legal representation. The situation is evolving. Thank you."
