This week’s program was inspired by “Flagstaff ‘NO!’ To Radioactive Trucks”, an article by our friend Brenda Norrell in Censored News on February 10, 2025: https://bit.ly/3F8Tzb5.

She is a cofounder of Haul No!, a campaign to stop a uranium mine near the Grand Canyon and transport thru Navajo Nation. Recently, Leona helped to halt Holtec in New Mexico.
