SAN XAVIER, TOHONO O'ODHAM NATION (Arizona) -- With heavy hearts, a delegation to the US/Mexico border return after viewing their fellow Indigenous brothers and sisters, Mayans, under arrest, and then packed quickly into the back of a truck. The delegation, including Mohawks, Oneida and Lakota in photo, expressed sadness and outrage at the border wall (in photo overhead) under construction on Tohono O'odham Nation land. The construction has already led to Boeing digging up O'odham ancestors on O'odham land. The border wall will be a barrier dissecting the traditional O'odham ceremonial route.
Special thanks to Bill Means, Lakota, and the summit gathering on Nov. 9, 2007, for their public support of the articles on this Indigenous delegation to the border, which appeared on the Censored Blog and were republished in the international media.
