An Appeal from Taos Pueblo: The Story of Blue Lake and its People, 1967-01-01 - 1974-12-31
The Taos Pueblo tribe is appealing to the United States government to recognize their ownership of the Blue Lake area, which holds great cultural and spiritual significance to them. The area contains important shrines and sanctuaries for their religion and is essential to their way of life. The tribe relies on the land for food, water, and spiritual connection, and views it as their Indian church. They are asking for the government to acknowledge their connection to the land and respect their request to not sell their title to the area.
