Book Description
This is the 30 year update to the report "The Farmington Report: A Conflict of Cultures." In 1974, in response to the brutal murder of three Navajo youths and numerous complaints from Navajo leaders concerning unequal protection and enforcement of the laws, the Advisory Committee undertook an intensive study of the social and economic relationships between the City of Farmington and the County of San Juan and the Navajos living in the community and in the adjoining reservation. 30 years later, the New Mexico Advisory Committee returned to the area to learn of changes in relationships between Farmington and San Juan County and the Navajos living in the community and in the adjoining reservation. The Committee found that there has been improvement with respect to the equal protection and enforcement of laws for Native Americans. Problems continue to persist; however, and these are addressed in this report.

Book Description
Red Nation Rising is the first book ever to investigate and explain the violent dynamics of bordertowns. Bordertowns are white-dominated towns and cities that operate according to the same political and spatial logics as all other American towns and cities. The difference is that these settlements get their name from their location at the borders of current-day reservation boundaries, which separates the territory of sovereign Native nations from lands claimed by the United States. Bordertowns came into existence when the first US military forts and trading posts were strategically placed along expanding imperial frontiers to extinguish indigenous resistance and incorporate captured indigenous territories into the burgeoning nation-state. To this day, the US settler state continues to wage violence on Native life and land in these spaces out of desperation to eliminate the threat of Native presence and complete its vision of national consolidation “from sea to shining sea.” This explains why some of the most important Native-led rebellions in US history originated in bordertowns and why they are zones of ongoing confrontation between Native nations and their colonial occupier, the United States. Despite this rich and important history of political and material struggle, little has been written about bordertowns. Red Nation Rising marks the first effort to tell these entangled histories and inspire a new generation of Native freedom fighters to return to bordertowns as key front lines in the long struggle for Native liberation from US colonial control. This book is a manual for navigating the extreme violence that Native people experience in reservation bordertowns and a manifesto for indigenous liberation that builds on long traditions of Native resistance to bordertown violence.
