#DeweyBurdock, A Renewed #Uranium Project, Threatens #SacredWaters in the #HeSapa
By NDN Collective • August 17, 2026
"As #Indigenous peoples, we are accustomed to generational battles. The fight to both return and protect the #ȞeSápa ( #BlackHills ) in #SouthDakota is one of those fights. Our #SacredSites and waters are constantly facing threats from new mining efforts.
"The Dewey-Burdock Uranium Project is a proposed mine covering approximately 10,580 acres across private and federal lands within the Ȟe Sápa. Individuals, organizations, and communities have been fighting against this uranium project for 20 years due to the radioactive waste it would generate, posing major threats to the health of people, animals, land, and water in the area.
History of Uranium Mining and Native Communities
"Native communities in South Dakota are no strangers to the risks posed by uranium mines. In 1962, about 200 tons of radioactive material from old #UraniumMines seeped through a broken dam at the #AngosturaReservoir and made its way into the #CheyenneRiver, upstream from #PineRidge. This meant that many living on the #PineRidgeReservation were exposed to #RadioactiveWater. Exposure to #radioactive materials is linked to #cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, #AutoimmuneDisorders, #thyroid disease, and more. We know that even 50 years later, high uranium levels are still present in #AngosturaReservoir in the southern Ȟe Sápa.
"The Angostura Reservoir is not far from where the proposed Dewey-Burdock Uranium project is located. So it makes sense that the surrounding community opposes a project that risks leaking even more radioactive material into the local ecosystem and waters. It is important to note that the threat from radioactive waste does not lessen over human time scales. Waste from uranium mining remains radioactive at harmful levels for hundreds of thousands of years.
"We have seen the impact on Native communities when radioactive waste from uranium mining and processing is left behind. Today, over 500 abandoned #UraniumMines are scattered across the #NavajoNation, causing numerous health disparities. We also see how what was once a historical gathering place for #Yakama peoples on the shore of the #ColumbiaRiver is now a #Superfund site so contaminated that spending a few minutes in the soil underneath some of the buildings would expose someone to enough radiation to kill an adult."

#Epstein and #RobertKennedyJr., were on #PineRidge '#FossilHunting'
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Feb. 13, 2026
Excerpt: "In related news, former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson's is in the Epstein files.
The horrific abuse of children now being exposed in the Epstein files includes these facts: The #ZorroRanch in #NewMexico was never searched, and is now believed to have the bodies of young victims buried there.
"Former New Mexico Gov. #BillRichardson, who was deeply involved in energy negotiations in Indian country, was in contact with Epstein for years. Richardson is among those named by one of the underage girls as being responsible for abusing her. She also named #PrinceAndrew.
"The United Nations is also included in the horrific scheme. #GhislaineMaxwell promoted her #TerraMar, a false front non-profit claiming to protect the oceans, during years of testimony at the U.N.
"The University of Arizona in Tucson was among those who received a grant from Epstein's Gratitude 'non-profit.'
"These are just a few of the facts being exposed in the millions of Epstein's files now being released.
"Gov. Richardson's involvement with energy in #IndianCountry was during the same years that #TexHall rose to so-called glory.
"Hall, the #EnergyCzar from #FortBerthold in #NorthDakota, headed the National Congress of American Indians, and brought in massive #OilAndGas wells to the Three Affiliated Tribes in North Dakota. Hall's business associate was later convicted in the two murders for hire of their other business partners.
"Hall and Gov. Richardson were energy czars in Indian country, during the years when Richardson served as New Mexico Governor and U.S. #EnergySecretary."

South Dakota governor’s cabinet nomination raises tribal concerns
Secretary of #HomelandSecurity nominee #KristiNoem has a long, complicated history with tribes in South Dakota.
Amelia Schafer
Nov 15, 2024RAPID CITY, S.D. – "Early Tuesday morning, news broke that South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem was nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the next Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, a decision that’s raised red flags for Native people in South Dakota, but also may provide an avenue for change.
"'We need to come together now, more than ever,' Oglala Sioux Tribe President Frank Star Comes Out said during a public intertribal meeting Nov. 13. 'I’m hoping we have a better governor in South Dakota that will work with us because we have issues that we need to bring to the table with the state.'
"Noem made South Dakota history earlier in May when she was banished from every reservation in the state following disparaging remarks made regarding alleged cartel activity on reservations and about Indian education. At one point Noem alleged tribal governments benefit from cartel presence and are failing their youth.

South Dakota governor’s cabinet nomination raises tribal concerns
Secretary of #HomelandSecurity nominee #KristiNoem has a long, complicated history with tribes in South Dakota.

Nov 15, 2024RAPID CITY, S.D. – "Early Tuesday morning, news broke that South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem was nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the next Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, a decision that’s raised red flags for Native people in South Dakota, but also may provide an avenue for change.
"'We need to come together now, more than ever,' Oglala Sioux Tribe President Frank Star Comes Out said during a public intertribal meeting Nov. 13. 'I’m hoping we have a better governor in South Dakota that will work with us because we have issues that we need to bring to the table with the state.'

'#SpacesOfException' #Resistance to the #FatTakers, from #NativeLands to #Palestine
"We might be the ones holding the knife -- but it is the state that is the one who is still killing us." Those are the words of #KleeBenally, in 'Spaces of Exception.'
by Brenda Norrell #CensoredNews
February 21, 2024"In the Navajo language, there is no word for relocation, it means to disappear and never be seen again."
The film, 'Spaces of Exception,' now being shown around the world, begins on #PineRidge, with the history of the resistance to the 'fat takers,' and travels to the refugee camps of Palestine, before arriving at the land of #AkwesasneMohawk, and the words shared of true sovereignty.
"Then, there are the images of the #OilAndGas, the #fracking, and #coal mining on the #NavajoNation, where #Dine' say the true literacy once known, talking with the #NaturalWorld, is being lost. Now, there is the destruction of the burial and sacred places, as #asthma takes over lives.
"On #BlackMesa, before he passed, Klee championed his relatives resisting forced relocation brought by #PeabodyCoal.
"'Their greatest form of resistance is being who they are' 'The autonomy that we have is here.'"
"'Places of Exception,' begins with scenes from #WoundedKnee 1973, and Palestine refugee camps, and the words, 'Places defined by their historical and spiritual resistance.'
"'The buffalo owns us, we don't own the buffalo,' says #AlexWhitePlume, #OglalaLakota on Pine Ridge, sharing the importance of language, and the stories carried by the words, and the impacts of #genocide.
"'The buffalo shares the same story we share.'
"The film series, 'The Native and the Refugee' began on Pine Ridge with, 'We Love Being Lakota.' The latest film, 'Spaces of Exception,' concludes with the image of the flags at #OcetiSakowin #WaterProtectors Camp on #StandingRock.
"Among those in the series of films are #DebraWhitePlume, who talks about the 'Fat Takers,' and #OlowanSaraMartinez, Oglala Lakota of Pine Ridge, South Dakota, now in the Spirit World. Their bold stance as defenders of the water and people was manifest at the #RedWarriorCamp at Standing Rock, during the resistance to the #DakotaAccessPipeline in North Dakota."Spaces of Exception comes out of the long-term multimedia project 'The Native and the Refugee', profiling Native lands in the United States alongside #Palestinian refugee camps, and is directed by #MattPeterson and #MalekRasamny."
