Supreme Court spurns Native American religious claim over copper mine on sacred land

The case revolves around a sacred Apache site that would be destroyed if the mining project goes ahead, pitting religious rights against bus

PLEASE SHARE to support our Apache neighbors!

I am not a Apache so I don't have any extra information to offer, but the Supreme Court declined to hear a case that would have saved sacred Apache land called Oak Flats. It's used in several important and meaningful ceremonies, including boys and girls entering manhood and womanhood. They're allowing a mining company to blow up the deeply sacred site to create a copper mine that was authorized via a land exchange bill that was passed by Congress.

RESOLUTION COPPER is the company that will be destroying the site for the mine. Email them or call them and express your concerns over the desecration of this sacred site. Reach out to APACHE STRONGHOLD to show support, donate to the tribe, help however you can! This website has lots of information about the land and ways you can help!

Like I said, I'm not Apache and I don't have a large platform, but I would like to help our native neighbors however I can. If someone more knowledgeable has more to add, please do. Please share if you have a larger platform to get the word out and get them more support.

Copper Mine Path by Henrik Sundholm Via Flickr: I few days ago I got to spend an evening at Falu gruva, the great copper mine in Sweden. Here, more than 60 % of the world's copper was mined in the 17th century.
