DESCRIPTION:Danny Blackgoat speaking in San Francisco!\n\nDanny Blackgoat is a longtime 
 Dine' (Navajo) resister of forced relocation. Traveling all the way from 
 his home at Big Mountain, Danny Blackgoat (son of Roberta Blackgoat) will 
 speak about his experience of the "land dispute" and recent 
 happenings.\n\nAs part of his presentation, Danny Blackgoat will screen a 
 24 minute film called "Ancient Voices". The film features Big Mountain 
 elder Pauline Whitesinger, with Danny Blackgoat translating. A preview clip 
 is available 
 here:\nhttp://www.twocircles.org/PaulineWhitesignerSampleVideo.html\n\n"We 
 are resisting relocation and the coal mining not only for ourselves but for 
 the whole world. Black Mesa must not be desecrated because of its 
 sacredness --it provides life to all living things including all the human 
 races."\n\nThe traditional Dine' (Navajo) of the Big Mountain region (in 
 Northeastern Arizona) are under attack by the US government, being pushed 
 off their land so that Peabody Coal company can move in and mine the 
 largest coal deposit in North America.  The Dine' and their supporters have 
 been battling with Peabody Coal, the BIA, and state/local governments for 
 over 30 years to stop a forced relocation from their homeland and the 
 continuation/ expansion of mining operations.  \n\nThere is a caravan of 
 support crews going to Black Mesa over 'Thanksgiving' and any cash 
 donations you can make during this event will go to support the elders and 
 the caravan. Tools, food, and other supplies are also needed, and may be 
 brought to this event. \n\nfor more information, please
