Western Shoshone are asking for help to establish an encampment to stop mining on Mt. Tenabo

Action Alert: Western Shoshone are asking for help to establish an encampment to stop mining on Mt. Tenabo

Carrie Dann, a world renowned Western Shoshone elder and recipient of the Right Livelihood Award (also known as the "alternative Nobel Peace Prize"), has been among those to lead the fight to protect Mount Tenabo from mining for over 15 years.

"Mount Tenabo should be left alone – no further disturbance. This mine will drain the water from Mount Tenabo. They will be sucking the water out of the mountain forever. The destruction of the water is like the destruction of the blood of the earth; you are destroying life of the earth and the people and wildlife that depend on it. Dewatering is taking the life of future generations. Water is sacred, all life depends on it," Dann said.

The Western Shoshone protested Barrick Gold's destruction on sacred Mount Tenabo on Wednesday and are calling for help to establish an encampment.

Several Shoshone men began building a permanent arbor on the southern flank of Mt. Tenabo. (This is the same location where the WSDP Spring Gathering has been held previously.) They will be camping there to monitor the area and they need your help.

This message sent by Peter Bergel, representing the Board of the Shundahai Network, at the request of Gregor Gable.

They need financial and other donations. Please contact Joyce McDade for additional information, e-mail: EJMcDade20@wmconnect.com.

Over a Decade of Resistance Dedicated to Breaking the Nuclear Chain Shundahai is a Newe (Western Shoshone) word meaning "Peace and Harmony with all Creation"


"No degree of prosperity could justify the accumulation of large amounts of highly toxic substances which nobody knows how to make safe and which remain an incalculable danger to the whole of creation for historical or even geological ages. To do such a thing is a transgression against life itself, a transgression infinitely more serious than any crime perpetrated by man. The idea that a civilization could sustain itself on such a transgression is an ethical, spiritual, and metaphysical monstrosity. It means conducting the economical affairs of man as if people did not matter at all." -- E. F. Schumacher “Small is Beautiful”
