Scenes from the rally today at Red Butte on Havasupai land opposing Pinyon Plain uranium mine, in the recently designated Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument. The action was organized by the Sierra Club Arizona (Grand Canyon Chapter) which called upon Governor Katie Hobbs to work with the Navajo Nation and Havasupai to close the mine. Meanwhile, a six-month moratorium on uranium ore hauling across the Navajo Nation is in effect until the beginning of 2025. #leaveitintheground #nouranium #protectgrandcanyon #waterislife
