By asserting their right to the land, the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Akwesasne8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Akwesasne8</span></a> have sent a clear message to both negotiating parties. Barnhart Island, like all other territories illegally stolen and swindled from their community, is not for sale—particularly not by collaborationist band and tribal council entities that purport to represent the full community but that were in fact historically imposed upon it at gunpoint.</p><p>"The fact that a group of eight community members was surrounded within just a few hours by approximately 35 police agents (including both border patrol agents and state troopers) is a clear indication of the strategic significance of this island to the interests of settler-capital. As Taiewennahawi (Marina Johnson-Zafiris), one of the eight arrestees, explains in her article 'Akwesasne and the History of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Hydropower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hydropower</span></a>,' the Moses-Saunders <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hydrodam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hydrodam</span></a>, located at the east end of Barnhart Island, is one of the many dams along the St. Lawrence Seaway that has supplied 'cheap' electricity to an unending procession of heavily <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/polluting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>polluting</span></a> factories since the 1950s. </p><p>"For decades, dirty plants like <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Alcoa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Alcoa</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GeneralMotors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralMotors</span></a>, and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReynoldsMetals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReynoldsMetals</span></a> harnessed the immense power of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Kaniatarowanenneh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kaniatarowanenneh</span></a> (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaintLawrenceRiver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SaintLawrenceRiver</span></a>) at the Moses-Saunders dam to manufacture aluminum, a cheap, abundant, and malleable building material that requires vast amounts of power to extract and process. Not only was hydropower-fueled aluminum production critical to New York’s economic development, it was central to the national pride and independence of so-called <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Qu%C3%A9bec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Québec</span></a>. Eager to assert its autonomy from Anglophone capital in the 1960s, the province began damming rivers on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a> land in a frenzy of hydropower nationalism. </p><p>"Upstream on the St. Lawrence, the aluminum plants at Akwesasne used a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/toxic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>toxic</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sludge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sludge</span></a> containing polychlorinated biphenyls (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PCBs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PCBs</span></a>) as a hydraulic fluid during the production process.
