Isimemo esivela ku-Nevada Desert Experience, ngo-Ephreli 13-19, i-2019

Ngosuku lwabantu bendabuko, owaziwa ngokuthi yiColumbus Day, Okthoba 8, 2018, Nye County, Nevada, abashushisi kanye namasekela kaSheriff baphela inqubomgomo emashumi amathathu eminyaka ngokuphathelene nokuboshwa kwabaphikisi e-Nevada National Security Site, i-NNSS, eyayaziwa ngokuthi i-Nevada Test Isayithi, i-60 yamamayela ukusuka e-Las Vegas.

Kusuka ku-1986 nge-1994, eminyakeni emibili ngemuva kokuba i-United States ibambe ukuhlolwa kokuhlaselwa kwezikhali zenuzi, imibukiso ye-536 yokulwa nuclear yenuke yabanjwa kusayithi. Izinkulungwane eziningi zibambe iqhaza futhi ngokusho kwamarekhodi kahulumeni, ukuboshwa kwe-15,740 kwenziwa, kodwa kwaqala ngo-1987, uMnyango Wezithunywa Zomphakathi, owashukumisela ingxenye ethile ngenxa yokuxoshwa okuningi emaphandleni asezindaweni zasemaphandleni, wayeka ukushaya abaphikisi ababhikishi kule ndawo ngesiphambeko sobugebengu. Izisebenzi eziwela i-cattleguard emgodini wocingo ngamakhilomitha amathathu ukusuka endaweni evikelekile, manje emele umgwaqo omhlophe ongabheki eduze ne-US Highway 95, ziboshwe okwesikhashana emoyeni ovulekile futhi zanikeza "Isaziso Esizovela" sicaphuna ngaphandle usuku lokubukeka lugcwalisiwe. Batshelwa ukuthi akukho ntlawulo eyofakwa. Ababoshiwe ababengenalo ukukhomba, ababenqabile ukuzibona noma ngisho nokunikeza amagama angamahloni nabo bakhululwa, njengalabo abanikeze imvume yokungena ezweni laseWestern Shoshone elikhishwe nguMkhandlu kaZwelonke.

Ngo-Agasti, i-2018, ummeli woMnyango Wezithunywa Zomthetho wazisa i-Nevada Desert Experience, i-NDE, ngokushintsha kwenqubomgomo. Kusukela manje, ababhikishi abafaka isayithi futhi bangabonisa i-ID ekhishwe nguhulumeni bayonikezwa ithikithi lokuxwayisa okokuqala futhi bakhiphe izingcaphuno zangempela uma bephinda. Labo abanjwe ngaphandle kwe-ID bazoboshwa, bathuthelwe ejele ePahrump bese bekhokhiswa njengezoni. Izimvume ezikhishwe uMkhandlu Kazwelonke waseWestern Shoshone ngeke zisahlonishwa. Lokhu kuphazamiseka kubangelwa, ngokusho kwephini elikhuluma namalungu e-NDE, ukucindezelwa ku-National Nuclear Security Administration we-US Department of Energy esebenza kule ndawo.

Ngezinombolo ezincishisiwe kodwa ngezikhathi ezivamile, i-NDE iye yaqhubeka imilenze yayo, imithandazo kanye nemibhikisho eSitiweni Sokuhlola izikhathi eziningana ngonyaka, ngokuvamile kuthiwa abanye bethu bavalelwe ngamaphini futhi bakhululwa ngemva kokuletha imvume eWestern Shoshone. Umcimbi wethu wokuwa wonyaka, "Justice for the Desert", uhlanganisa umkhumbi wokukhuleka wangena esakhiweni futhi ngalesi sikhathi, amalungu amathathu emkhandlwini olawula i-NDE aboshelwe. Sesibili, uMark Kelso waseLas Vegas nami, esivela eMalay, e-Iowa, sakhululwa ngezixwayiso ngemva kokuba sinikeze amalayisensi ethu okushayela. UMarcus Page-Collonge weCalaveras County, California, wathathwa ejele ePahrump futhi waboshwa ngalobo busuku.

Ngemuva kwezinsuku ezimbalwa, ngo-Okthoba 11, ummeli wesifundazwe saseNye County wabeka isikhalazo kuMarcus eBeatty Township Justice Court ethi "Ummangalelwa wenza ngokungafanele futhi ngokungemthetho endaweni yomhlaba weNavada National Security ngemuva kokuxwayiswa cha ukuba enze ngakho "futhi icala lokulwa nobugebengu bakhe libekwe uDisemba 3.

Ekulingweni, uMbuso weNevada uzodinga ukufakazela ukuthi impahla uMarcus eyaqhubeka kuyo yiyo "yeSonto lezokuVikela iNational Nevada," okusolakala ukuthi ngeke kuqinisekiswe kalula. Ku-1950, indawo yokuhlola yasungulwa ezweni elisemthethweni eliqashelwa yiSivumelwano SaseRuby Valley ku-1863 njengesizwe sesizwe saseNtshonalanga Shoshone. Lesi sivumelwano sivumela uhulumeni wase-US ukuba "anelungelo lokudlula le ndawo, alondoloze amathalayini namathafa asekhona, akhe umgwaqo owodwa futhi ahlanganyele emisebenzini ecacisiwe yezomnotho. Isivumelwano sivumela umongameli wase-United States ukuba akhethe ukubhuka, kodwa akabopheli lokhu kumakhansela omhlaba. "I-bill NNSS posts billboard" AKUBA i-TRESPASSING "izimpawu ezibiza izwe njengezakhe, kodwa iWestern Shoshone ayikaze ithole izwe layo elingcwele kuhulumeni. Nganoma yiliphi isilinganiso, izwe lingelabo futhi yi-NNSS eyisiphambeko, hhayi uMarcus noma nanoma yiziphi izinkulungwane zezishoshovu eziboshiwe lapho esikhathini esidlule.

I-NNSS ayiyona nje indawo ehlala kuyo engeyona eyayo, isebenza ibhizinisi lobugebengu lapho. Abaphathi baseNye County bangasebenzisa isikhathi sabo ngokubhekisele ekubhekaneni nalezi zenzo zobugebengu ezibhekiswe esintwini kunokuhlukumeza abameli ababhikishi. Leli sayithi yindawo eplanethi eye yabhekana nokuqhuma okukhulu kwe-athomu kunanoma yimuphi omunye futhi uzobe ubuthi ngenxa yamakhulu amaningi eminyaka, noma ngabe i-Yucca Mountain (engxenyeni esentshonalanga ye-NNSS) ayikugcina ibe yindawo yokugcina yonke imfucuza ye-nuclear reactor . Nakuba kungabikho ukutholakala kwangempela lapha kusukela ku-1992, kusekhona izivivinyo "ezibhalwe phansi" futhi zisahlolwa okwamanje ukuze zithole ukuthi i-arsenal yase-United States iyasebenza kanjani. Kukhona izinhlelo zokuqhubeka nokuhlolwa ku-Area 5 ye-NNSS, uma ngabe uMongameli waseMelika eyala lokho. I-NNSS iyasebenza kuphela ngokuphula iSivumelwano SaseRuby Valley kodwa ngokumelene noMqulu WeZizwe Ezihlangene nezinye izivumelwano zomhlaba wonke ukuthi ngokomthethosisekelo wase-US ungumthetho ophakeme wezwe. Isivumelwano esiphathelene nokuvinjelwa kwezikhali zenuzi ezamukelwa yiZizwe Ezihlangene ngonyaka odlule kwenza kube yicala "ukuthuthukisa, ukuhlola, ukukhiqiza, ukuthola, ukuhlala, ukugcina impahla, ukusebenzisa noma ukusongela ukusebenzisa izikhali zenuzi."

Uma ngoDisemba 3, uMahluleli Gus Sullivan weNkantolo YezobuLungiswa KwaBeatty Town ubeka umthetho ngokufungiswa kwakhe, uMarcus uzotholakala engenecala futhi uMmeli wesifunda uzokwaziswa ukuthi angalokothi afake amacala afanayo okusobala kule nkantolo futhi . Kodwa-ke, ubulungiswa abukho kangako emakhotho ethu futhi le miphumela enhle ayilindelekile, okungenani hhayi okokuqala lapho icala elizwakala khona eminyakeni engaphezulu kwe-30. Kodwa kuthiwani uma ezinyangeni ezizayo, inqwaba, amakhulu, ngisho nezinkulungwane zivela eSitiweni sokuhlola njengasekuqaleni, ukupakisha iNkantolo Yobulungisa YaseBeatty Town kanye neNye County Jail ngenkathi sisekho? Njengoba uMarcus esitshela ukuthi, "Bonke abantu eNvada naseShoshone, abanakekela ikusasa lokuphila emhlabeni, banesibopho sokuguqula ukuqhuma kwezikhali zenuzi, ukudoba, ukumba izimayini nokugaya, ukuqeda ubudlova basezikhungweni ezimele lapha eNNSS!"

Isiphakamiso esincane: Siyamema bonke abangane kanye nabahambi nabo ukuba bajoyine konke noma ingxenye ye-NDE yonyaka oNgcwele we-Peace Walk, ngo-Ephreli 13-19, kulo nyaka ozayo, ehamba nge-60 miles ukusuka Las Vegas, edlule isikhungo se-drone esibulalayo eCreech Air Force ukuze i-Peace Camp Camp, ephela ngoLwesihlanu Oluhle emasangweni eNdawo Yezokuphepha yeNewada. Khona-ke, ngenani elikhulu kunazo zonke labahlali abazokwazi ukuphakamisa futhi nangemvume yoMkhandlu weNational Western Shoshone, singena ezweni labo elingcwele ndawonye!

Nakuba lokhu "ukuboshwa" kungeke kube yisimiso ngaphandle kwemiphumela esiye yaba nayo, ngisho nakuhulumeni omusha ngamunye kufanele akwazi ukubala ingozi ngayinye ekulungele futhi ekwazi ukuthatha. Okokuqala, noma ubani angakwazi ukuzibandakanya ngendlela enenjongo ngaphandle kokuwela umugqa, umuntu ngamunye ungeze amandla esenzo sonke ngaphandle kokungaboshwa. Okwesibili, noma ubani ofaka isayithi ngegunya le-Western Shoshone NE-ID yesithombe njengelayisensi yokushayela, ongakaze akhiphe isixwayiso (mina kuphela noMark Kelso kuze kube manje) cishe uzocubungulwa ngokushesha futhi akhululwe ngesixwayiso. Okwesithathu, noma ubani ongena ngemvume ye-Western Shoshone njengoba i-ID yakhe kuphela kufanele alindele ukugibela ePahrump futhi angene ejele lapho. UMarcus wayebanjwe ku-$ 500 bond, kepha ngubani owaziyo ukuthi uzokwenzenjani uma kukhona isixuku sethu? Ukuhamba ngebheyili noma kungabi enye indlela ongayicabangela ngayo. Uma sigwetshiwe, kungenzeka ukuthi ijaji lizosikhulula ngoMsombuluko, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi sisetshenziswe isikhathi noma sivivinyo esikhathini esiseduze esiseduze.

"Ukugcwalisa amaJail" yisikhathi esihlonishwayo saseMelika esiye sasiyingxenye ebaluleke kakhulu ekuthuthukiseni intuthuko yentuthuko yezenhlalakahle futhi izigxobo ezingakaze ziphakeme. Eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu edlule, izinombolo ezinzima zasiza ekupheleni kokushushiswa kwababhikishi eSitiweni Sokuhlola futhi kwafaka isandla ekuqaliseni ukuvinjelwa komhlaba wonke ukuhlolwa okugcwele kwezikhali zenuzi. Lokho esikufunayo manje kungaphezulu kwalokhu. Azikho izithembiso zomphumela ngaphandle kokuqagela okufundisiwe kulokhu kuphakanyiswa. Kungaba isinyathelo ekukholweni, kodwa ukuthi lezi zikhathi eziyingozi zidinga okungenani abanye bethu futhi ngaphezulu abazoboniswa, kuyoba mnandi ngokwengeziwe!

Umshushisi nomprofethi uPer Bergangan bebekhuluma isikhathi esibucayi lapho ethi, "Kulesi simo esingcolile, sikholelwa ukuthi ukuboshwa kwaze kwaba nzima nakakhulu. Siyaxolisa ngaphansi kokushaywa komphakathi okuhlangene ngokuthula ngokuthula. Ukuphindaphindiwe, i-propaganda, ukunganaki kwezokuxhumana, ukwehlukaniswa kwezikhungo kubonisa ukuhlupheka kwethu. Abantu bethu badidekile futhi bangenathemba. Masingayeki. Masiqhubeke sizondla ngokuhlala njalo nangokuthandaza ekufakweni kwezempi, ezinkantolo nasezintweni zokuvala. Ngempela, sidinga ukukhululeka ngokwanele ukuya ejele. Kudingeka sigcwalise iziboshwa. Ukuguquka okungaphephile kuzophuma ehlane, njengoba kunjalo njalo. Futhi qiniseka, abangane abathandekayo, inhlanyelo enhle kakhulu namuhla ijele laseMelika. "

I-Nevada Desert Experience iyinhlangano encike ekukholweni futhi i-Sacred Peace Walk ihlanganisa ukufakaza nokukhulekela amasiko amaningi nalabo abazibona bengenalo. Hamba uhambe nathi nathi ehlane ngoba ngesonto noma uhlanganyele nathi ekuseni ngoLwesihlanu ekuseni ngesenzo somphakathi sokumelana nokuphikisana. Kulabo abakwaziyo, beza bekulungele ngempelasonto ejabulisayo ndawonye ejele kanye nokusola okuqinile emandleni okucindezela enkantolo, uma kunjalo kanjalo. Xhumana nathi info@nevadadesertexperience.org, noma ifoni (702) i-646-4814, inombolo efanayo ongayidinga ukuyibiza ngaphakathi kwe-Nye County Jail, lapho kuphela ukuqoqa izingcingo kuvunyelwe!
