Border Wall Construction Destroying Cottonwoods, 'Green Ribbon' Running Through the Desert
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, August 4, 2026
#LochielAZ -- "Day 6 at #GrandmotherCamp, there was no border wall construction since the tree sit began last Wednesday in this rich landscape. The cottonwood trees are the nesting place of #MigratoryBirds, including the rare #YellowBilledCuckoo.
" 'We've lost three grandmothers that took 250 years to grow. They were obliterated by the monstrous machinations in four hours,' Kate said on Monday from the tree sit in Lochiel, about 25 miles east of Nogales, southeast of Tucson.
" 'But I just saw a Yellow-billed #Cuckoo, federally threatened crying over this beautiful meadow.'
" 'This remaining Grandmother, that threatened bird -- we remain hopeful that our efforts here on the ground will be met with thoughtful reasonable conversation and a new direction for Lochiel community,' Kate said.
" 'This remaining Grandmother represents hope and resistance.' "

Blood Memories: #Indigenous Women on the Frontlines Inspire with Words and Action
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, April 17, 2024
NEW YORK -- "Indigenous women around the world are battling #FossillFuels, #mining, #exploitation and #oppression. The abuse of #MotherEarth is directly connected to the violence against Indigenous women.
"Women's Earth and #ClimateAction Network International hosted Indigenous women on panels during the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues on Wednesday.
"Osprey Orielle Lake, WECAN executive director, opened the session calling for a #ceasefire in #Gaza, an end to the oppression, and return of the hostages. 'The killing must be stopped now,' she said.
"Indigenous women speak on the struggles, from the battle to halt the #MountainValleyPipeline and protect their burial places, to #Anishinaabe protecting the water and animals around the #GreatLakes and the battles against mining in the #Amazon, #Ecuador, #Colombia, #Brazil and #Peru."
