No One Is Illegal Radio reports about the frontline struggles for justice, dignity and self-determination by migrants, refugees and indigenous peoples.
On this month's edition of No One Is Illegal Radio:
-- Border Crossing Intifada in Gaza –On January 23, 2008, Palestinians living in Gaza tore down the border wall at the Rafah crossing, temporarily breaking the Israeli siege, and permitting the movement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians into Egypt to secure basic necessities. For perspective and first-hand accounts, we speak with Mohamed Omer in Rafah, and Rami Elmeghari in Gaza City.
-- Lipan Apache resist the Border Wall --On February 7, 2008, an elder of the Lipan Apache in southern Texas was summoned to appear in court as part of a process to confiscate borderlands to build the wall between Mexico and the USA. In response, the Lipan Apache have sued the Department of Homeland Security. We speak with Margo Tamez, of the Lipan Apache Women's Community Defense.
-- Republic of Lakotah --On December 17, 2007, 2007, members of the Lakota Freedom Delegation announced their unilateral withdrawal from all agreements and treaties with the United States of America. The "Republic of Lakotah" (or Lakotah Oyate) encompasses parts of North & South Dakota, Nebraska, Montana and Wyoming. We speak with Teghiya Kte Canupa, a founding member of the Republic of Lakotah, and a headsman from the village of Wounded Knee.
And, on the upload:
-- No Olympics on stolen native land! --On January 31, 2008, two native youth warriors active in organizing against the scheduled 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver/Whistler visited Montreal. We hear extended audio excerpts of a press conference at Montreal's Olympic Stadium, and a public talk at the Native Friendship Center of Montreal, by Kanahus Pellkey of the Native Youth Movement, and Dustin Johnson of the Ts'mksiyen Nation in "British Columbia".

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
-- Border Crossing Intifada in Gaza --Gaza remains under occupation and Gaza remains under siege. But, on January 23, 2008, in an inspiring act of collective defiance, and courage, Palestinians living in Gaza tore down the metal and concrete walls at the Rafah border crossing and traveled freely to Egypt in the hundreds of thousands. They temporarily broke the siege imposed by apartheid Israel with their own hands and feet (literally). On this month's show, we speak with Mohamed Omer, the publisher of the Rafah Today website, and Rami Elmegahri, a journalist and translator based in Gaza City.

In response, members of the Lipan Apache are suing the Department of Homeland Security and promising to resist all efforts to confiscate their lands. On this month's show, we speak with Margo Tamez, the daughter of Eloisa Tamez and a member of the Lipan Apache Women's Community Defense.
From the interview: "What's happening right now is a major moment for indigenous peoples in this hemispehere, especially in the USA, because it shifts radically the terrain of indigenous politics, of transborder politics, of awareness of militarization in your own backyard." -- Margo Tamez.
