The arctic native Gwich'in women from all walks of life speak out to protect the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from oil development. They remind us this is not only an environmental issue but also an indigenous and human rights issue for the nation.

Mohawk Nation News '2012 Eugenics Olympics'
By Mohawk Nation News
http://www.mohawknationnews.com
MNN: JULY 26, 2012. A picture speaks a thousand words. In the Montreal Gazette of July 26, 2012, appears a montage of 277 athletes. This is Canada’s Olympic team heading for London. It appears like Canada is working toward an almost 100% white team, with a few black, Asian and brown.
237 athletes, or 86%, are of the white race. Whites are not 86% of the population of Canada. People of color now make up almost 50% of the Canadian population. They will be a minority within 20 years.
No Indigenous appear to be on the team, the people whose land this is. Canada [Kanata] is a Mohawk word. This is the best team that can be created by the restrictions set by the corporatist states. The Olympics showcases the superiority of one group over another by awarding fake medals.
These athletes are the children for the most part of the upper middle class, who have the opportunities. Our children rarely make it in this system.
Darwin, Malthus and others experimented in creating a superior white race. It was found that three generations of inbreeding created nut bars or docile compliant people. So what kind of experimentation is going on now? Are Russell Williams, James Holmes, the Craiglist killer and others experiments gone wrong?
Selective breeding is causing their men to become sterile and their women to become infertile. They now have the lowest birthrate in the world, while natural people have the highest.
Whites need technical apparatuses and artificial environments to give them an advantage, like pools, ski equipment and other gewgaws. In a fair competition of natural abilities, people of color are stronger, more agile and have greater endurance. What if white athletes competed fairly with people of color? There might be a completely different representation. Just look at football, basketball and other sports requiring stamina. Other races excel.
What if they had to work long hours picking food, or in a factory for a few cents a day? What if they came from a society with a high infant mortality, almost non-existent sanitation, malnutrition, toxic drinking water, diseases, war and political unrest?
What if basketball nets were lowered to give Japanese and Inuit the same access to the net? What if they had to compete with Indigenous in a boat race through the Amazon River? What if they had to cross the 50 degrees below zero tundra on a bobsled pulled by dogs?
England refused to let our teams compete in England as a nation with our own passports. They demanded we be part of the colonial nations that are squatting on our land,
London is the center of eugenics research. They try to design how a few can continue to live off the theft of land and resources from those who cannot even hope to attend the Olympics.

President Barack Obama spoke at the Fox Theater during his re-election campaign in Oakland, California. United Native Americans joined over 100 protesters to demand President Obama honor his word and respect indigenous people, starting with the return of land to the Ohlone people. Protesters invited President Obama with a burning American flag.
UNA President Quanah Brightman spoke, saying, "Every inch of this land is stained with Indian blood. The land you are standing on is Ohlone Land."
"The Hoopa Tribe in Northern California is fighting a legal battle with PacifiCorp and the California Environmental Protection Agency to Un-Dam the Klamath River. PacifiCorp is owned my Warren Buffet, a major campaign contributor to Obama. The president has an obligation to respect indigenous people and the health of the ecosystem, and as such should instruct the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission hold PacifiCorp responsible and shut down and remove the Klamath dam in order to restore the health of water and the salmon," says UNA Ambassador Hinhanska Haney.
The United States continues to violate over 350 treaties with American Indian Nations. United Native Americans demands President Barack Obama stay true to his word and honor the treaties.

United Native Americans Inc., founders of the Native American Studies Program, returns to UC Berkeley to support the ceremony to rebury Indigenous ancestral remains. The Ohlone and Danzante Ceremony represents the Prophecy of the Eagle of the North and the Condor of the South.
UNA thanks Wicahpiluta Candelaria, Wounded Knee, and the Danzante Azteca for the organizing the Healing Ceremony.
We ask UC Berkeley to stop the Hate Crimes toward Indigenous People and return the ancestral remains in order to give them Healing and Respect.
The remains are housed in the Phoebe Hearst Museum. Here is information on the legacy of the Hearst Family:
* The Hearst Museum is housing 13,000 skeletal remains of the Ohlone People, along with over 300,000 indigenous artifacts, making it one of the largest holders of remains outside of a cemetery.
* George Hearst, husband of Phoebe, father of William Randolph, and creator of the Hearst Corporation, illegally mined in the Sacred Black Hills, creating the Homestake Mine, the largest gold mine in the Western Hemisphere. Adjusted for inflation, the Homestake Mine extracted over $60 Billion in gold alone.
