Hopi and Human Rights. The Black Mesa Strip Mine - a study in Energy Development, Land Exploitation and Aftermath.

c) Lastly - UEF last worked with Hopi Spokesperson Thomas Banyacya - who was the spokesperson for the traditional Hopi community.

We would like to tell the story as to what has happened at this point in time.

• Are there any "traditional" Hopi left or just what were termed "progressives"?

• What is the state of the land currently, after Peabody Coal filed bankruptcy as owner of the Black Mesa Pipeline Company and Peabody Coal Company Keynta Strip mine.
• It would be great to be able to describe the state of Hopi after all the turmoil and after John Boyden and 60 years of strip and uranium mining on what was originally the Hopi's land.
