Remembering 1974: Navajo Liberation vs. Farmington
The Red Nation Podcast
In 1974, three Navajo men--John Earl Harvey, Herman Dodge Benally, and David Ignacio--were brutally beaten and murdered by white teenage settlers in the bordertown of Farmington, New Mexico. It was an act known as “Indian rolling.” Diné grassroots leaders rose to this injustice by creating the Coalition for Navajo Liberation and the long hot summer of 1974 ensued. The marches and boycotts against the settlement of Farmington would go on to stand prominently in the history of Red Power and heralded future generations of Indigenous resistance. Saturday, September 21, 2024, the march and...

Leonard Peltier and the murder of Anna Mae Aquash
The Red Nation Podcast
Federal prosecutors have attempted to tie Indigenous political prisoner Leonard Peltier to the murder of fellow AIM activist, Anna Mae Pictou-Aquash. It is a frequent allegation that has relied on weak evidence and the charges of paid federal informants. In this episode, TRN Podcast co-host Nick Estes looks at several sources of information from key Indigenous activists who knew Leonard Peltier and Anna Mae Pictou-Aquash to the FBI’s own knowledge of her murder at the time it happened and federal prosecutors' initial hesitancy to take up the case.

info_outlineVice presidential candidate for the Democratic Party and Minnesota governor Tim Walz stopped in Window Rock, AZ where snipers lined the monument and three Diné citizens were brutalized by his staffers during the Harris/Walz campaign stop. Navajo Nation president Buu Nygren announced the public event the day before, 10 days before the general election.
While standing in the crowd, a Diné woman was continuously harassed by authorities and attacked by a Walz staffer, while another Diné man was brutalized and arrested. Meanwhile, Buu Nygren, President of the Navajo Nation, was getting heckled about his missing Vice President and another woman chanting for Trump in the crowd. It was clear that campaign staffers weren’t clamping down on "disruptors", rather, they were targeting Diné people--on their own homelands--policing anyone who supports Palestine.
In this episode, Justine hosts Janene, Kiley, and Koi as they recount their violent removals from the event, and their analyses of Navajo Nation Police, the widespread acceptance of genocide in the Democratic Party, and the blatant disregard for tribal sovereignty during the U.S. presidential elections.
