On May 7, 2025, Apache Stronghold returned to federal court in Phoenix, Arizona, in the ongoing fight to protect Oak Flat—Chi’chil Biłdagoteel—from destruction by Resolution Copper. I was there, alongside my daughter, nieces, and relatives, singing Apache songs and standing in solidarity. This episode brings you the uncut voices from that day: speeches from Nizhoni and Wendsler Nosie before the hearing, and from Vanessa Nosie, attorney Luke Goodrich, Naelyn Pike, and Wendsler Nosie again after court.
We close with two Apache songs—offered in prayer, strength, and spiritual resistance.
The judge has said a decision will come no later than May 14 at 5 p.m. Until then, we continue to fight for our existence.
