 Mountain, Kat was raised with Diné traditions by her family in the midst 
 of a struggle for cultural survival. She is currently living in Salinas 
 with her four sons and is known as a humble, hard-working woman who is 
 always there for the people.\n\n* Corrina Gould (Chochenyo/Karkin Ohlone)

 one turned away.\nThis is a benefit for Black Mesa families resisting 
 relocation.\n\nBACKGROUND:\nIn Northeastern Arizona, traditional Diné 
 (Navajo) elders and families at Black Mesa are continuing a decades-long 
 resistance to coal strip-mining and forced relocation from their sacred 
 ancestral lands.\n\n“Our life is our religion, and our religion is the 
 land.”\nThomas Katenay, Diné\n\nIn the Monterey and SF Bay Areas, Ohlone 
 people continue to fight for cultural survival and the protection of their 
 sacred places and burial grounds. “Un-recognized” by the federal 
 government, the Ohlones have no land-base and live day to day within a 
 settler society that is largely ignorant of their continued 
 existence.\n\n“What I say about this development that happens all over 
 the Bay Area, is that it’s a cultural genocide. They’re trying to wipe 
 us out, in a different kind of a way.”\nCorrina Gould, Ohlone \n\nEvent
