Casey Camp-Horinek 'Our Legacy Demands that We Warrior Up'
The Big 'Man Camp' of the Bordertown of Farmington
.
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, June 23, 2025
John Redhouse's new book documents the racism in the bordertown of Farmington, N.M., and the torture murders of Navajos by white teenagers in the 1970s. The intrinsic mix of racism continued in the decades that followed, and involved judges and their families, violence by police officers, and the heavy flow of oil, gas and coal mine workers -- producing a vile mix of one of the first huge man camps in the energy industry.
It didn't end there.
Under the banner of green, the Navajo Transitional Energy Company, a tribal enterprise, bought coal mines in Wyoming and Montana without consent from the tribal government, mines which continue to operate, and recently planned to dig into Hualapai's Ceremonial Big Spring for lithium, before a federal judge halted it.
The media tiptoes around Farmington as a base for exploitation, as it did when it failed to publish the facts of former Interior Sec. Deb Haaland's announcement here.
Flying under the banner of "green," Haaland announced that the atomic bomb industry would lead the so-called "energy transition." Haaland failed to point out that Los Alamos National Labs has already poisoned the air, water and land in the heart of the Pueblos in northern New Mexico, her mother's homeland. Another fact was missing: There is no safe way to store nuclear waste.
Haaland's announcement came with the new push for more nuclear energy, and transport and dumping of nuclear waste in Indian country. The Four Corners is now a new target for dumping and abuse, as radioactive trucks now cross the Navajo Navajo, Hopi Nation and region, and nuclear dumping continues in the White Mesa Ute community in Utah.Today: Apache Stronghold at U.S. Supreme Court -- Filing Re-appeal to Protect Oak Flat

The Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) International is organizing the virtual Global Women’s Assembly for Climate Justice: Path to COP30 and Beyond.

This event is a free, public forum to take place virtually from June 23 - 28, 2025, daily from 1:00 - 6:00pm ET.
The Global Women’s Assembly will bring together grassroots and frontline women leaders in all of their diversity, global advocates, thought leaders, and policy-makers to showcase a diverse array of visions, projects, policy frameworks, campaigns, and movement strategies with which we can accelerate a bold and transformative path to a healthy and just world. This collective work is paramount as we face a growing polycrisis. The challenges are ever-increasing, but so are our power, hearts, and leadership when we gather together.
The virtual Assembly also serves as a convening to support collective calls to action in the lead-up to COP30 and beyond, and is designed to generate ongoing networks of action regionally and by campaign focus for the years to come. We will tie these networks into existing women's and feminist formations as our collective movement for women’s climate leadership is growing. Everyone is welcome!
WECAN established our first Global Summit in 2013, where we organized a gathering of 100 global women and gender-diverse leaders from the Global South and Global North, including former Heads of State, Indigenous leaders, scientists, grassroots and frontline leaders, renewable energy experts, and policymakers. Since the first WECAN convening, we have conducted seven global assemblies, including in France, Morocco, Brazil, the United States, and Germany. Please be welcome to learn more about the crucial role of women at the center of climate solutions here.

FOREST LAKE CHAPTER — On Friday, the 25th Navajo Nation Council held a public hearing at the Forest Lake Chapter House to solicit community feedback on President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order 14241, “Reinvigorating America’s Beautiful Clean Coal Industry,” which seeks to expand coal development by revising existing federal regulations.
