Karonhiaktajeh (Louis Hall) was Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) from Kahnawake, unceded sovereign Mohawk Territory. Karonhiaktajeh foresaw our struggles as Native People and prepared us for the coming revolution/evolution. Karonhiaktajeh is one of our great visionaries, and I, Kahentinetha, have a duty to share with the world one of his final messages before he died in 1993.

There is a revolution, not just brewing, but in effect in the Iroquois Confederacy. The rebels are not the bearded, uncouth and unkempt characters skulking in the dark alleys of a city. These are Iroquois Chiefs and some followers who are revolting against the Great Law, Gayanerekowa, many parts of which were copied in the United States Constitution which in turn were copied by other constitutions in the world. The Great Law is the Iroquois Constitution which the rebels have put aside and have installed the Handsome Lake Code in its place. The Handsome Lake Code is a copy of the Quaker Code which is not an Indian device.

With a message of hope, Chief Looking Horse said his people are a people of peace and today, more than ever, the youths are singing their songs and are now are running, walking, and on horseback, on the ride from Green Grass.

Protesters Rally Against Pinyon Plain Uranium Mine in Arizona, Block Hauling Truck

HAVASUPAI TERRITORY -- On the third day of an anti-uranium summit in northern Arizona, participants organized a rally to highlight the risks posed by uranium mining. On a two-lane highway near the mine, about 150 people gathered on May 17 to wave signs and inform people, most of whom were on their way to Grand Canyon National Park which is just a few miles up the road, about uranium mining in the area.

Part way through the rally, protesters identified a semi-truck operated by Hammon Trucking, a company contracted by Energy Fuels to haul uranium ore from the mine to the Energy Fuels mill outside Blanding, UT.

Protesters launched a spontaneous blockade of the truck, surrounding it and demanding that it stop its travel toward what protesters assumed was the mine. Rallygoers chanted, while some vandalized the rig with anti-uranium messages. Others measured the radioactivity of the trailer used to carry uranium ore.

After a standoff with police, the crowd moved to a nearby dirt road that leads to Red Butte. Protesters had another short confrontation with local, state, and national law enforcement officers. The crowd dispersed without arrests, and some left rocks in the road to block the path for vehicles who might follow.

Coconino County, Arizona – At the feet of Wii’i Gdwiisa, or Red Butte as it’s called in English, the winds are strong. Just a few miles south of the Grand Canyon’s rim sits the tall sandstone butte surrounded by juniper trees and vast desert lands.

A makeshift tarp awning flaps in the gusts while people work to hold the much-appreciated shade structure in place. On a folding table sit a variety of Geiger counters, used to detect radioactive particles. They chime periodically, reporting background radiation detected from nearby objects or carried in the wind.

Tohono Nation Files Lawsuit Over Plans to Take Tribal Land for Border Wall

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, June 17, 2026

The Tohono O'odham Nation filed a federal lawsuit to halt the seizure of tribal land for the border wall, pointing out that the United States government is disregarding tribal sovereignty and construction will destroy sacred sites and impact ceremonies and religious practices.

"The Nation has not consented to the construction of a border wall or associated infrastructure across its Reservation," the Tohono O'odham Nation said in the lawsuit.

The Tohono O'odham Nation said the construction would destroy petroglyphs that are "perpetual prayers," block ancient trails and disrupt the lives of O'odham families who live on both sides of the border.
