#BraveHeartSociety Issues Urgent Warning on #ArtificialIntelligence and #DataCenters

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 8, 2026

Excerpt: "#FaithSpottedEagle, #Ihanktonwan, delivered an urgent warning today about artificial intelligence and data centers, imperiling the future of our water.

" 'I come to you on this beautiful day with an urgent message. Many times in our past as #NativePeople various #messengers have come to warn us of frightening, hurtful invasions that are coming. There is one coming immediately -- and it is here and it is called artificial intelligence."

"Spotted Eagle said artificial intelligence is developing these data centers, and they are sounding the alarm, to all relatives, including the non-Native people, that this is really going to be the last blow to our land and water.

" 'It takes billions of water to run these data centers, and it is known to enhance cancer, it is just a multiple of dangers that are coming.'

" 'So our main concern is the unborn, we have to be at this point in history,' warned Spotted Eagle, director of the Women's #OhitikaOkodakiciye (Brave Heart Society) and chair of the Ihanktonwan Treaty Committee.

" 'Just like #ThomasBanyacya, #SittingBull, and #ChiefSeattle, they foresaw the future and we are seeing the future right this minute, and so we ask, implore you to join us, united together, as relatives as all races, to stop these data centers from stealing our water.'

" 'The invasion is coming again.'

"Speaking in an urgent video address today, #ElijahSmall, biologist for the Brave Heart Society, joined Spotted Eagle and described how the data centers bring an unbelievable harm to the communities.

" 'These data centers are energy consumptive. They warm the river water and dump that water back into our rivers and streams. This could have a profound effect on both the natural environment and the fish that we rely upon.' "

If all the beasts were gone, men would die of great loneliness of spirit, since whatever happens to the beasts also happens to man. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth.
-- Chief Seattle (1835)

This crossed my path a while ago & I keep returning to it when overwhelmed by cruelty. I relate being born between fire & water as in my heritage to be born Manusia (human), witnessing the Deva & Raksasa, (divine & demonic).

As a child I was at one the smaller #WorldsFairs, #Expo74 in #Spokane. My friend and occasional musical collaborator Rhonda was there too and wrote a song about it. We both were fascinated by a plaster bust of #ChiefSeattle that had a film of an actor projected onto it, resulting in a speaking 3D bust. He must have had his head clamped into a vise or something! Here's the song, "Expo 74" by our band #MightyShiny:
