    • BIG MOUNTAIN, ARIZ. - Caught in a tangled web of US-Indian history
      "In their long fight to remain on ancestral lands, Navajo dissenters opposed to forced
      relocation hope the United Nations will take up their cause." With map. --By Daniel
      B. Wood Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor (Tuesday, January 26, 1999)
      "The story of this country, the coal mine, and a group of Navajo families is a morality
      play of the American Southwest - one rooted, as is often the case in this part of the country,
      in a pitched battle over how to use the land. "This story encompasses every key dynamic of the
      postwar West - cultural change, redistribution of wealth and power, transition from agrarian
      to industrial society,limited resource bases, and questionable futures," says historian Catherine
      Feher-Elston."       UNLIKELY REBEL: Photo "Sally Young, a Navajo elder, says a nearby coal-fed
      power plant has polluted her Arizona homeland. Protesters say coal mining is also behind the
      forced relocation of 125 Navajo families."
