Inside Navajo Nation’s Battle Against Coronavirus

President Nez is the forerunner of that. He's a great man who cares about his people.. he's in the frontlines of handling out boxes of food to the hungry. I know because I'm Navajo. I live in Phoenix in a house with air conditioning, WiFi, food in my fridge.. I take gratitude every single day.. some might say that I'm not looking out for my people. I am. My grandparents both on my mother's and father's side live on the Rez, my cousins, my uncle's, my aunt's as well. I grew up with an ambitious mother, a very hard working mother. Everyday I feel grateful to be in a stable environment.. and so much sadness of seeing my people struggle..

Something Democrats don’t want you thinking about

[@AwsomesauceChase]

@@OneManCanStopTheMotorOfWorld partly the substance abuse has to do with the low tolerance and the predisposition they have to addiction from genetics. This began to be exploited when Europeans would sell them booze in exchange for practically all of their land. Realize the poor situation they are in is absolutely due to colonization and they are no way better off now than they were. That does not mean that we should look to the past and be critical of what happened hundreds of years ago but try to offer them support now because it is still negatively affecting them. What do people do when they are in poor situations especially when they are predisposed to being addicted do? They turn to drugs. I'm not saying it's right or justified, but there are reasons and simply they need support, not just financially but especially in their school system. The numbers are correct, but there is context and we should offer solutions. I believe things would be a lot worse without the income they receive. And saying you do not like the Navajo is deeply racist

It is a tough time here in Shiprock, NM. There are only 13 grocery stores on the whole reservation. We rely on border towns stores and businesses like Farmington and Gallup, which means we are all competing for simple cleaning supplies, food, water, basic essentials. If we can't find in one place we'll continue to travel til we find something. Most of us are not shopping only for ourselves but multiple families, what we do find we share and help one another. If we do find anything. Housing is a Whole othet topic and it's all so frustrating. More importantly the racism has gone up in the border towns and is horrible to see displayed so happily.

It is so heartbreaking that the people that founded this “country” aren’t being taken care of. It’s so sickening. These are truly the oppressed peoples of America. My heart breaks, they deserve better

[@desireesandovalwilliams8371]

My question. How did they get it like that though ? It originally came from a person, place, thing... I wonder if the tracers even know.

Mystry J we...they owe us that money for screwing us over and stealing all the land that you guys are living on now....

[@mystryj4771]

James Peterson I guess that’s the difference between me and you. I was always taught NO one, owes you nothing you work for it. It doesn’t matter your race, neighborhood, past etc. Hard work in life pays off. I live in a quarter of a million dollar house, drive vehicles that people could only dream of, buy what I want go where I want, two hundred thousand dollars in gold in a safe in my garage and another 400,000 in the bank account. While you wait for handouts. See the difference.

[@jamesp8]

Mystry J ya and I see you have ego problems as well bragging about yourself ....your first comment doesn’t surprise me after seeing that comment..

[@greg925911]

Where do we donate to help these great people that have beaten down from the greed of our founding fathers till today an on
