Traditionally the Diné (Navajo) have lived their lives as Indigenous-minded pragmatists always acting on behalf of their communal balance of hózhó, or the stronghold of cultural and spiritual epistemology. When an entity brings imbalance into the Diné cosmos reaction is imminent – the approach concerns guardianship over the People and the Land,.. inextricably connected to the Diné identity. Venaya will speak on the art of resistance of modern Diné who realize their roles in the cultural stewardship of the Matriarchland. From the tangible acts of pollution and water rights issues of the Navajo Nation, Venaya will dialogue on modern issue facing the People in the American Southwest.
