[Film] The #ApacheStronghold defending #sacred #OakFlat land from a #CopperMine

"In the heart of the #Arizona high desert lies a battle for the soul of the land. The ancient, sacred grounds of #Apache #Native territory are under threat from a looming giant — a massive copper mine that promises riches for the locals, and a pathway to the so-called green transition. But, as is often the case, it comes at a cost.

"The #SanCarlosApache tribe calls it Chi’chil Bildagoteel; English speakers call it Oak Flat. It sits on a mountainous plateau within a 17.3-kilometer oasis in the #TontoNationalForest. #RioTinto and #BHP, two of the world’s biggest mining companies, have staked their claim here through a joint venture called #ResolutionCopper. For over 10 years they’ve been lobbying governments for the right to build a colossal mine that would cover roughly 7,000 acres of surface area, and extend more than a mile into the ground.

"The only thing that stands in their way is the #resistance of the Apache Stronghold, a nonprofit community organization of #Natives and non-Natives uniting to counter ongoing #colonization, defend holy sites and protect freedom of religion, which was created to protect Chi’chil Bildagoteel.

"Airbnb, and other short term rental sites, have cannibalized the supply of #RentalApartments and contributed to increases in rents of between 40 and 50 per cent in cities like Vancouver and Toronto over the last two years."

#RicochetMedia has spoken to over half a dozen current and former OMG employees for this story (who have requested anonymity for fear of retaliation), a spokesperson for the newly formed employee union and Mohamed himself. We’ve listened to a leaked audio recording of a Dec. 5 all-hands meeting and confronted #Overstory management about a surprising number of #discrepancies in their public statements.
