#NativeAmericaCalling: A new wave of resistance against #Trans #Native relatives

Wednesday, March 5, 2025

"Trans #NativeAmericans face a new wave of #resistance

"Iowa is testing new legal limits as the first state to remove gender identity as a protected class in the state’s civil rights code.

"The Trump administration is also removing transgender service personnel from the military. And the State Department is using existing law against #fraud to bar foreign #TransgenderAthletes from entering the country, something critics worry could be used to ban any trans traveler.

"After years of progress, Native American trans residents are facing a major rollback of favorable laws and policies. Tune in to hear about the current public climate and what might be in store for the future."

#NativeAmericaCalling: Remembering the 1974 #Navajo border town murders

Friday, April 19, 2024

"The torture and gruesome murders of three Navajo men by white high school students touched off a series of racially-fueled conflicts in #FarmingtonNewMexico, on the border with the Navajo Nation.

"The murders in April 1974 became known as the #ChokecherryMassacre. One protest organizer at the time called Farmington 'the #SelmaAlabama of the Southwest,' referring to the simmering racial tensions.

"Demands by Navajos and other #NativeActivists since then have improved relations in the border town and surrounding areas somewhat.

"But many residents and observers say the sources of the problems remain just below the surface.

"Join Native America Calling to recount this little-known period of #FourCorners history and discuss what community relationships are like 50 years later.
