This anthology of essays offers perspectives of the Navajo homeland, nihikÉyah, highlighting DinÉ examinations and understandings of the land.
While various books have investigated Native American reservations and homelands, this book is from DinÉ individuals’ experiences, observations, and examinations. Poets, writers, and scholars frame their thoughts on four key questions: What are the thoughts/perspectives on nihikÉyah/Navajo homeland? What challenges does nihikÉyah face in the coming generations, and what should all peoples know about nihikÉyah? And how can nihikÉyah build a strong and positive Navajo Nation for the rest of this century and beyond?
The authors come from a variety of backgrounds and use multiple approaches to discuss DinÉ history in the U.S. Southwest, as well as forward-looking examinations of the Navajo Nation.
Together, the essays shed new light on DinÉ homeland and the challenges to the Navajo homeland and its peoples.
