On Friday, my predictions of increased violence from police and Entrada attendees came true. Everything we have been trying to bring to light was shown loud and clear; the logic of conquest is alive and well here in New Mexico. For those of you who have not read any of the recent articles pertaining to the situation, I will give a brief recap.

Wendsler Nosie, Tracker of Evil at Santa Fe Plaza

Wendsler Nosie, Tracker of Evil at the Santa Fe Plaza

Special to Censored News

This interview was conducted on Saturday, September 9, 2017

San Carlos Apache activist Wendsler Nosie came to Santa Fe to participate in the third annual street protest against the public Entrada costume pageant on September 8, which depicts Spanish Conquistadores reconquering the city 12 years after being forcibly expelled during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. When Censored News caught up with Mr. Nosie, evil was on his mind.

What happened yesterday in the plaza?

I felt the unrest feeling, and I didn't know why I was feeling that way. It was cold, something was wrong with that place. And then I was told about the 70 executions of Pueblo people ordered by Don Diego de Vargas in 1693. There was a wrong that occurred there, and it has to be healed. The true history has to be told, and that place should be treated like a cemetery, a memorial, where the losses are respected.

EDGEMONT, South Dakota -- The Seismic Testing Project is at work everyday for another month. Every day is another day of attack to the Sacred Black Hills and Wind Cave​ Structures below, which have been mapped at 300 miles.
The permit process is illegal because none of the tribes were notified.

The same Cultural Relevance attack is holding, Dewey Burdock Uranium project is in the same area of Edgemont, South Dakota.

As for Crow Butte Uranium Expansion, our Oglala Sioux Tribal Attorney Steve Gun did not want to pursue anything because he said there are no grounds, because the process is already done

So we are looking for any legal help.

Tonia Stands said, "They never mentioned any Nations connected to the Sacred Black Hills. National Forest Service ignores us all. Instead they go to private archaelogical consultants and SHPO (State Historic Preservation Officer) plus the District Ranger, then sign off on our Indigenous Rights.

We need all Warriors, Land Defenders, Sacred Site Protectors, Akicita, Lakota/Dakota/Nakota Oyate to come and join us in a opposition against this illegal Seismic Testing Project."
