	Deep Background
		In 1974, despite the protests of traditional Hopi and Dineh peoples and in light of an expose by the Washington Post of the conflict as fictional, the Relocation Act (P.L. 93-531) was pushed through Congress.
		The traditional Dineh believe they were placed by the creator on their land and have a responsibility to remain on and care for it.
		The Dineh resistors rejected the AIP by a vote of 206 to 1.

		Dineh Cooperatives, Inc. (DCI), Chinle, Navaho Nation, AZ The Navajo Nation, which occupies 25,000 square miles of land in parts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, was the largest and one of the most resource rich Indian territories in the country in the 1960s.

	Dineh Sponsored Gathering Fear Law Enforcement Intervention : AZ IMC (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		A Dineh sponsored gathering was initiated in celebration for the continued resistance to the forcible relocation programs, the BIA-Hopi Area Agency's implementation of a state of fear, and steady coal mining expansions.
		Another concern of the Dineh sponsors is how the authorities and tribal officials might misinterpret or misrepresent the traditional efforts at this Gathering as an event of unlawfulness or activities motivated by outside influences.
		The Dineh sponsors of the gathering are, however, hopeful for a positive response from the Navajo Nation and Hopi Tribal governments to acknowledge this traditional resistors' assembly.

	SOVEREIGN DINEH NATION
		The Dineh resistors represent one of the last self-sufficient Native people living traditionally in the U.S. Throughout the dispute, heavy handed tactics have been used to pressure Dineh residents into accepting relocation.

	Dineh still determined to resist relocation and coal mining : AZ IMC (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Dineh were pushed westward as they starved and leaving behind the old ones to die and eventually some Dineh found refuge atop Black Mesa.
		The United States' court case against the Dineh of the 1.8 million acre, "Joint-Use Area (JUA)," never proved that these starving Dineh plundered Hopi villages and squatted on Hopi grazing/hunting areas, or that the Hopis were opposed to the Dineh finding refuge.
		There are further evidences that the Dineh and Hopis escaped together into Canyon de Chelly which is about 60 miles east of Hopi/Dineh country, and when there was a famine in Hopi country in the late 1800s, the Dineh brought food and burros to their neighbors.

		By February 2000, the U.S. government plans to complete the relocation of the Navajo, known as Dineh in their native tongue, that remain at a site in Arizona that they have inhabited since the U.S. Army tried to wipe them all out in 1863.
		In the 1940's and 1950's, it was discovered that massive deposits of coal, oil and uranium lay beneath the lands that the Dineh settled in after the U.S. Army, led by Colonel Kit Carson in 1863, began its efforts to kill everyone in the Dineh nation.
		Thousands of Dineh were killed during that assault and thousands more were forced to march 400 miles in the infamous "Long Walk" during the winter.

		To the Dineh, to relocate from the land of their birth is to disappear.

	CULTURAL SENSITIVITY
		These people are surrounded by such aggression and hostility from US Government officials yet still maintain an air of wisdom and strength which I realized stemmed from their lifelong bonds with the land on which they live and were born.
		Keeping with this attitude at all times, we will remember that it is the Dineh who will remain on the land after support leaves, and it is they who continue to withstand great hardships to safeguard the survival of their future generations.
		The Dineh have many taboos, and something you may do that has no significance to you may be hurtful or be a huge taboo to them.
