<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, tenth graders from Thoreau High School wrote to media outlets and officials across the state,\u00a0drawing attention to a recommended cleanup plan from the federal government<\/a>. Across the Navajo Nation, contaminated uranium mines have been polluting the air and water and making people sick for generations. As part of a plan to finally clean up more than a million cubic yards of contaminated uranium and radium waste at just one of those sites, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has proposed relocating the waste to private land within the town of Thoreau. Relocating it to the Red Rocks Disposal Facility would move the uranium off the lands of the Navajo Nation, but as the students point out, the town of Thoreau is predominantly Navajo.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This spring, a representative from the EPA met with the students, who listened to a presentation and interviewed him for their podcast. I visited Thoreau High School in May and then invited the teens into the studio in Albuquerque to talk about what they\u2019re learning, and who they\u2019re hoping will listen. This week, please tune in to the show to hear from Reagan Russette, MiaBella Burrola, and Ezekiel Gonzales.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I haven\u2019t gone down to Ruidoso yet, so I don\u2019t feel qualified to write about the fires or their aftermath.<\/strong> Instead, I\u2019ll point you toward coverage from Source NM<\/a> (whose reporters are doing excellent and thoughtful work) as well as the Village of Ruidoso\u2019s South Fork\/Salt Fire Information Hub<\/a> and the State of New Mexico\u2019s 2024 Wildfire page<\/a>. I\u2019ve included some other resources from the state at the end of this email.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, during the fire\u2019s most devastating run, social media was awash with videos of fire, smoke, and destroyed homes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It reminded me of how, in 2022, when people were losing their homes and homelands in the Hermits Peak-Calf Canyon Fire, I remember hearing how devastating it was for people to see their beloved homes and ranches on the news and on social media. I remember hearing how people felt violated and traumatized.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And last week, I spoke with a friend whose wife couldn\u2019t look away from the feeds showing burned homes, as she looked to see if her family home was among them. With each news reel (or social media reel), she was sick, wondering if she\u2019d see her home next. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, after the Hermits Peak-Calf Canyon Fire, I invited two special reporters, Adria Malcolm and Patrick Lohmann, to talk to me about their coverage. You can watch the entire interview on NMPBS,<\/a> but I also pulled out a snippet during which Malcolm, a photojournalist, acknowledges the extractive nature of journalism and talks about the respect she brings to her work.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I totally understand that it is dramatic (and clickbaity) to share fire and destruction footage on social media. Many journalists do their best to acknowledge the harm that reporting can sometimes do. As professionals, we also should adhere to a code of ethics.<\/a> There\u2019s no reason that non-journalists can\u2019t bring the same care to their community members in a time of crisis, too. I know everyone is trying to drive traffic to their sites, pages, feeds, and social media accounts. But it’s totally possible to bring accurate and important information to the public without exploiting or traumatizing people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Serious Needs Assistance (SNA) provides funding for households to cover important items like water, food, first aid, breast-feeding supplies, infant formula, diapers, personal hygiene items, and fuel for transportation or other emergency supplies for eligible households. To qualify for SNA, you must be displaced, need shelter or have other emergency costs due to the disaster on your application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
