LAUGHLIN, Nevada -- "We're really in drought, we really need the water," Dorece Antonio said just now, live on Zoom with the Environmental Education Collaborative, as the Sacred Water Unity Walk makes it way from Hualapai's Sacred Ha'Kamwe' in Arizona, to Peehee Mu'huh, Thacker Pass in Nevada.
"Every step is a prayer."
Today, on the Sacred 700 mile walk, Fort Mojave Singers sang a Water Song for the walkers and Runners.
"We are doing it for future generations," Dorece said.
Dorece, Fort McDermitt Paiute Shoshone, is a descendant of Ox Sam, a survivor of the Calvary's Massacre at Peehee Mu'huh.
"Right now we're hurting for runners and walkers," Dorece said. She said they are in need of a van to support the walkers and runners.
Late today, Dorece was getting tires for her vehicle today, after the route the first two days over rough roads tore up her tires. She said the walk needs water and hydration drinks. It is hot in Laughlin, the temperature is 102 degrees.
Paiute and Shoshone are battling Lithium Americas mining at the Paiute Massacre Site, Peehee Mu'huh, Thacker Pass in northern Nevada.
Hualapai's Sacred Big Sandy, Ha'Kamwe', in Arizona is targeted with lithium mining by an Australian company, Hawkstone Energy, which is currently halted by Federal Judge Diane Humetewa, Hopi.
Currently, Lithium Americas of Canada is constructing a man camp in Winnemucca, Nevada.
Lithium Americas is digging into the Sacred Massacre Site for lithium, devouring water, and violating all federal laws that protect Native American Religious and Historic Places, the environment and the water.
Listen to the Sacred Songs as the Runners were greeted by the Fort Mojave Singers.
