Camaeron's Story

This story or set of little quotes is from someone very important, whose words are short but meaningful.

By Kylie W. from Zuni High School in New Mexico

According to Camaeron, in a perfect world we would be communicating from person to person, without any mediating technology. The reason he thinks this is because when you're face to face with a person, you can easily see their emotions and if they are lying to you in any way. He almost said that because we have cellphones now and are always on them, we don't make time to meet people in real life anymore. 

Camaeron's advice to himself is not to mess up in any way. The reason he said this was because in the past, he has done bad things. Because of this, he regrets everything wrong he did. According to him, "Some of the things I did wrong, I regret now because I almost lost someone important to me."

Tribal Sovereignty: Washed Faces

As the children are fed along a river, they find gratitude in the heart of the land. From one corn stalk to the next, the seed grows and the root stretches into the underworld, grasping the soul of their ancestors. A mother's sovereignty.

Generations of running

This was taken at the 2021 NM State Cross-Country Race. Our ancestors would run to different places sending messages and receiving messages. Running has been a part of our generation for many years and here we successfully continue the cycle.

This picture is a "vote here" sign. I choose this because to me, it is showing how our tribal government uses a system of picking and replacing the old government with new people through free and fair elections.

What democracy means to me is that everyone has the right to vote. We are all equal when it comes to picking the leader of our country. It is not one party's job to pick the next leader, it is the community or the country that can help dictate who be
