Navajo Nation is the largest Native American Reservation, spanning Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. For 6 decades, the Navajo Nation has been mined for its coal reserves, powering the Southwest & profiting some of the world’s largest energy companies. The Four Corners Power Plant is one of the largest and dirtiest coal-fired power plants of the USA’s 633. Its spews toxic mercury emissions into the air, and dumps dangerous coal waste into the nearby storage ponds. The coal waste sits in unlined pits in the ground, with very little to stop it from entering water supplies. Harmful levels of lead, copper, and mercury haveRead More →

Most people in state prison for drug offenses have no history of violence. The “War On Drugs” is economically inefficient. It has failed to reduce drug use and is a human rights disaster. Treating drug use and addiction as a public health issue is more effective at rehabilitating individuals and benefitting the wider community than criminalization. … Enough myths. Let’s combat the economic and legalRead More →
