Apache Stronghold -- Confronting Evil with a Full Heart: Prayers at Oak Flat



Apache Stronghold -- Confronting Evil with a Full Heart: Prayers at Oak Flat

By Apache Stronghold, Censored News, April 2, 2026

“Moving as one across the blooming mesa, reminded of our higher purpose - to wish harm on no one, for hard times will find them soon enough; to walk with dignity and courage, gratitude and love for the gift of creation; to confront evil with a full heart, sharp eyes and a quiet mind, to know there is a price to be paid for glimpsing the gates of heaven that are right here on earth. May the people stay blessed and protected. Protect Sacred Oak Flat.” -- Charlotte Levinson, 3/29/26 Charlotte Levinson

Apache Stronghold 'We Are Still Fighting'



Apache Stronghold 'We Are Still Fighting'

Statement from Dr. Wendsler Nosie Sr.

Many of you have heard that on Friday, the Ninth Circuit again refused to stop the Government from giving Oak Flat to Resolution Copper for destruction. This is sad news. But we will never stop fighting to protect Oak Flat and each place that is sacred to our people. And we are still fighting—in the courts, in Congress, and, most importantly, spiritually.
