Nevada
Desert Experience honors the commitment to struggle for
justice and sovereignty of the indigenous peoples of this
land. Nuclear weapons testing has been conducted worldwide
on lands taken from indigenous people. The "Nevada-Semipalatinsk"
movement in the former Soviet Union was inspired by NDE,
APT, Greenpeace and the Western Shoshone activism in Newe
Sogobia on behalf of the peace in the world and an end
to nuclear weapons testing. In the case of the Nevada
Test Site, the land legally belongs to the Western Shoshone
Nation. This land is now the most bombed place on earth.
