It’s insane that my Nation had to release a statement for those of us off reservation on what to do if we are harassed by ICE agents. Native Americans. The original people. May be harassed because we don’t “look” like we belong here. I fuckin hate this country.

Essential reading for Ministers Jean and Schulz - and oh, yes, anybody living downstream from the headwaters especially farmer and irrigators. It's short and a greater explainer of the risks that arise when coal mining mobilizes selenium.
