Peter’s Mine Road is plastered with signs. On one side, they say “congratulations class of 2022.” On the other, they say “Superfund site.”

Pollution in this area of Ringwood, New Jersey dates back to 1967, when the Ford Motor Company began dumping paint sludge and other hazardous byproducts from their Mahwah car factory on land surrounding a defunct mine. But for a while nobody knew – especially not the indigenous people who lived there. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency didn’t designate the site for federally-managed Superfund cleanup until the 1980s.

Those toxic chemicals remain at the center of a decades-long fight, waged largely with the Ramapough Lenape Nation’s Turtle Clan.

Two weeks ago, New Jersey’s Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the state Attorney General’s office filed a new lawsuit against Ford, saying the automaker was “fully aware” of the harm it was causing to Ringwood and the ancestral lands of the Ramapough.

Most of the area’s residents were and continue to be members of the Turtle Clan. Chief Vincent Mann said the community’s way of living off the land unknowingly sealed their fate.

“They were harvesting wild medicinals. They were drinking the water,” Mann said. “In all of those things was all the toxic chemicals that was disposed of there by Ford Motor Corporation, allowed by the town of Ringwood.”

According to the new civil complaint, Ford later sold or donated the land to municipal governments and residential developers without fully disclosing the contamination they’d left behind. By 1973, the company no longer owned any land at the site.

DEP Commissioner Shawn LaTourrette said the lawsuit seeks restitution for the damage done to natural resources, rather than human health. Over 600 people from Upper Ringwood, alleging personal injuries and cancer due to the dumping site, filed a class-action…

18th lifetime tribal Chief Dr. Marilynn Malerba, first female in that office in the modern history of the Mohegan Algonquian Native American tribe historically based in present-day Connecticut.

From Sicangu REDCO Community Development email,

…Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen became the first person in her role to visit a Native Nation … accompanied by [Mohegan lifetime] Chief Marilynn “Lynn” Malerba, who had been named as the next US Treasurer just hours earlier by President Biden. The visit also coincided with the Treasury’s announcement of the establishment of a new Office of Tribal and Native Affairs, which will report to the Treasurer and coordinate Tribal relations throughout the Department.

“With this announcement, we are making an even deeper commitment to Indian Country,” said Secretary Yellen, in remarks delivered at Sinte Gleska University [a public, tribal, land-grant university in Mission, South Dakota, on the Rosebud Indian Reservation, Brulé Lakota  Indian Reservation home to the Sicangu.

Yellen] went on to acknowledge the “centuries-long injustices” that Native Nations are working to overcome, and committed to expanding the “unique relationship with Tribal nations, continuing our joint efforts to support the development of Tribal economies and economic opportunities for Tribal citizens….

WILLIAMSTOWN — They stand, 12 silent sentinels, watching over the land. 

In this field, they bear witness to the wind as it blows, to the rain as it falls, to the stars in the night sky. They watch the fireflies flit in the dark of night and stand watch over the bobolinks that nest in the tall grasses of Field Farm Reservation, 316 preserved acres overseen by The Trustees of Reservations.

On view: Through April 30, 2024. Free 30-minute walk-and-talk tours will take place at noon on Saturdays from July 9 through Sept. 3.

It is here that sculptor and mixed media artist Rose B. Simpson‘s slender, androgynous cast-concrete 9-foot-tall sculptures will stand, along the horizon line of the meadow, visible from Sloan Road, though April 30, 2023. Her most ambitious work to date, “Counterculture,” honors generations of marginalized people and cultures, whose voices have been too often silenced by colonization and in many cases, forcibly removed from their homelands. 

“I’ve been playing around with this idea being a witness, of witnessing; in that we look deeply at so many subjects, everything that we experience,” Simpson said, during a recent interview in the meadow, at the foot of her sculptures. “How do we look deeper and ever deeper into those subjects?

“This piece, initially, was about looking at a sort of the post-apocalyptic landscape for indigenous people. So, they are witnesses of that really difficult history [of colonization] … these could be put anywhere on this planet and they’d still be, in a sense, surveying that difficult history.”

And this piece, she said, is about personal growth, for her, and her audience. 

“So much of my work is about teaching myself how to slow…
