Description
Welcome to the web site of Ari Halberstadt. This web site is where I place things that may be of interest to others. Mainly, this means some of my photography. There are also bits of software I have written over the years, such as a bulletin board and the software that organizes my photographs for the web using Java and a relational database..
Black Mesa is a land besieged by coal mining interests, tribal politics, and US government stupidity and callousness. The Dineh (Navajo) American Indians, and a small number of Hopi, are struggling to preserve their lives and their traditional way of life in this area in northern Arizona, not far from the Grand Canyon. They have endured illegal and forceful relocations, livestock confiscations, interference with their beliefs and ceremonies, destruction of homes, capping of wells in an arid land, prohibitions on repair of homes and on any new construction. Lots of information, links, and ways to help through actions, donations, and purchase of traditional art can be found at Migrations.
