Indigenous Peoples and Human Rights

Blackfire, sounding out strength and resistance!





Special thanks to Jeneda, Klee and Clayson Benally and their father Jones Benally for driving all those miles to perform in San Xavier for the Indigenous Peoples' Border Summit of the Americas! Thanks for your good words to protect San Francisco Peaks from wastewater and support for Navajos resisting the power plant at Desert Rock, the self-determination movement of the Maori who were arrested recently, the struggle of Apaches for Mount Graham, the Zapatistas movement for Indigenous autonomy and justice and all the of the struggles for dignity and humanity for the sake of the Seven Generations to come.
