About the film and filmmaker:"High Power”
Director: Pradeep Indulkar
India, 2013, 27 min, English subtitles
Darkness spreads in the town that provides power to the country, and this time it seems to be here to stay. Tarapur Atomic Power Station, the first nuclear power plant in India, was set up 40 years ago with much fanfare. Tarapur, the town that gives its name to the plant, is, however, miles away from the dream it had promised to be. What really happened in Tarapur in these 40 long years is an awakening the whole world needs to arrive at, before it is too late. Set against the backdrop of yet another heaven being brought down by man's deed to meet his greed, this documentary unfolds a world unknown, a picture unshown, and a nature unborne.. .

MMN. Mar. 7, 2014. Refusing to give us the results of his ongoing investigation of the 825 missing and murdered Aboriginal girls and young women is a travesty of justice. Peter McKay, the Minister of Justice, threw the reports onto the floor of the House of Commons. The Members of Parliament made jokes, laughed and clapped. The guilt and cover up go right to the top, legal, financial, police and judges. Those who did not stand up in outrage are part of the conspiracy to murder our women and children.

Owe Aku International Justice Project

A meeting was scheduled and within a few hours relatives from Rosebud, Cheyenne River and Rapid City, as well as three vehicles full of members of Owe Aku's Moccasins on the Ground, caravaned to Lower Brule to lend our support and assist our brothers and sisters in their struggle. The message: we are one Lakota Oyate and we will not permit the destruction of our land and water by anyone and we will protect it for future generations.

We look forward to young warriors and activists from the Kul Wicasa Oyate participating in the Moccasins on the Ground training to be held at Rosebud the weekend of April 25th. To be added to our email list in order to receive more information email us at oweakuinternational@me.com.
WOPILA!
