AI data centers are becoming one of the most talked-about development issues in Indian Country, bringing important questions about water, energy, land, and Tribal sovereignty to the forefront.
On this guest-hosted episode of All My Relations, Dallas Goldtooth sits down with Ashley LaMont for a powerful conversation on land, resistance, and the growing threat of AI data centers across Indian Country.
Ashley is the Co-Director of the Department of Sovereignty & Self-Determination at Honor the Earth, she explains how stakeholders are framing AI infrastructure as an economic opportunity for Tribal Nations while these facilities consume enormous amounts of water and energy. Together, they unpack the environmental impacts of AI, the ongoing realities of colonialism, and why Indigenous sovereignty must remain at the center of conversations about technology and development.
