The Grand Canyon is Arizona's most prominent natural formation that draws in millions of visitors annually with a landscape that holds significance to multiple tribal nations across the state. Still, the public lands surrounding the Grand Canyon have been the target for uranium mining for decades. Growing up and living at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, Kambria Siyuja from the Havasupai Tribe said she's witnessed her tribe fight against the threat of mining for generations. 'I grew up watching these people fight for so long, and my mother has grown up watching these people fight for so long,' Siyuja said, and she hopes that with her generation, it will finally come to an end so that they can have peace.
