DESCRIPTION:Doodá (Absolutely No!) Desert Rock Power Plant!\nA presentation about 
 resistance to energy development on indigenous land.\n\nThe community of 
 Chaco Rio in the Navajo Nation (SW of Farmington, New Mexico) has been 
 blockading entry to the site of a proposed 1,500 megawatt coal fired power 
 plant since December of 2006. Desert Rock would be the third coal plant 
 within a 20-mile radius in a region already suffering from extreme levels 
 of toxic emissions.\n\nAs part of her March California speaking tour, 
 Elouise Brown, Diné (Navajo) traditionalist and president of the Doodá 
 Desert Rock committee, will speak about dangers posed by the coal industry, 
 the exploitation of indigenous land by energy companies, and the ongoing 
 struggle to prevent the Desert Rock plant from ever existing.\n\nSeveral 
 short films will also be screened:\nMaking a Stand at Desert Rock- by Klee 
 Benally (8:00)\nKilling Coal: Four Corners in the Crosshairs (7:10)\nOur 
 Native Roots – Inside the Dooda Desert Rock Camp\n\nFor more information

 expense of the health of our children, the air we breathe, our sacred land 
 and water, and our way of life. As Navajo people, our work and dedication 
 is centered on the Diné philosophy of Balance, Harmony, Respect and 
 Equality. As children of Mother Earth and Father Sky, we are honored and 
 obligated to protect and preserve the natural state of Harmony and 
 Beauty.”\n\n-Elouise Brown \n
