On January second, 2021 a message began traveling out from Crescent Valley, Nevada. Western Shoshone elder Carrie Dann had passed and joined her sister Mary in the Spirit World.
For over 40 years the Dann Sisters were keeping Shoshone tradition and land rights alive against formidable opposition: Expanding gold mines, confiscation of their horses and cattle by armed federal agents and nuclear testing and waste storage.
In honor and in memory of Carrie Dann Iâm returning to recordings I made on Shoshone land. In June 2003 we came in support of the Danns against the recent violent armed raids by federal agents on their horses and cattle.
The traditional Shoshone held council in a camp at the base of Mount Tenabo, the sacred mountain. The first speaker in this recording is Shoshone elder Corbin Harney. He is credited with having inspired the creation of the anti-nuclear Shundahai Network - and the last speaker you will hear is Carrie Dann.
