The Nation - News from Oct. 29, 1985
Navajo Indians and supporters marched through Santa Fe, N.M., protesting the planned relocation of 10,000 Navajos from northeastern Arizona to other regions in the state and New Mexico. The marchers oppose a 1974 law designed to resolve a land dispute between the Navajo and Hopi tribes. The law calls for the relocation of the Navajos by next July. The protest march by about 75 people was timed for opening day of the Inter-American Indian Congress, a gathering of Indians from throughout the Western Hemisphere.
