Selected Audio recorded October 26, 2024 at Window Rock Tribal Park, in Window Rock, Arizona, the capitol of the Navajo Nation, during a Harris/Walz "Early Vote Celebration" themed campaign rally, focusing on the importance of the Native American vote.

From a Navajo Nation press release:

WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. – The Navajo Nation President welcomes Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to the Navajo Nation capital on Saturday, Oct. 26, to present the Harris/Walz platform, and the need for Navajos and Arizona Natives to vote in the most crucial election of a generation.

“Whether you believe it or not, your vote determines who sits in the White House and in Congress,” President Nygren said. “Whoever is in the White House is important because as a sovereign Navajo Nation, we will work with the new leader to serve our Diné people."

According to the Arizona 2020 Census, Native people make up 6% of the state’s population. About 300,000 of Arizona’s Natives are old enough to vote.

Gallup Archaeology talk by Prof. Wade Campbell on Fortresses and Foodways in Navajo lands - i.e. Dinétah

On August 25, 2024, in Gallup, New Mexico, Professor Wade Campbell (Boston University) talked about “Fortresses and Foodways: Research in Dinétah”

The Indigenous food sovereignty movement advocates for the reclamation of ancestral foods in Native communities like the Navajo Nation. What can archaeological research offer to these discussions? This talk shares the results of a recent project that analyzed ceramic sherds from a ~300+ year old Diné habitation site near Navajo Reservoir, NM. The results of this work provide evidence for a variety of early Navajo food preparation techniques, which are both similar to and different from what is done today in Diné communities. How then can we link this historical look at Diné diet with the ongoing food sovereignty movement in Indigenous communities? Dr. Campbell will also share a quick update on the ongoing early Navajo fortress project he discussed last summer.

Dr. Wade Campbell is a Diné (Navajo) historical archaeologist who grew up in Gallup. His research examines the relationships between Diné communities and other local groups in the U.S. Southwest from the 17th century to the present day, including the Pueblos, Spanish, and Americans. He is engaged with a range of questions related to longer-term patterns of Navajo settlement and economic activity across the greater Four Corners region, with a particular focus on incipient Indigenous pastoralism and related shifts in land-use, social organization, and diet/subsistence practices. At present Wade is an Assistant Professor in Boston University's Department of Anthropology & Archaeology Program.

The lecture is sponsored by the Plateau Sciences Society a group dedicated to the study and appreciation of the social and natural sciences relating to the Colorado Plateau and its people. The community is cordially invited to this free event and encouraged to stay afterwards for a reception and to learn more about the PSS and its activities. The Plateau Science Society programs are varied and deal with the Pre-history, History, Geology, Geography, and Cultures of our area.
