FLAGSTAFF, Arizona - The Miss Navajo Nation pageant is parting ways with fry bread [doughnut slab with no hole], the fluffy, golden brown [garbage] delicacy that's become a symbol of Native American culture but is rooted in oppression.
Women vying for the crown this week in Window Rock will prepare traditional [indigenous] Navajo foods instead, like blue corn mush or a cake made at puberty ceremonies.
Outgoing Miss Navajo Ronda Joe said the tribe's new ambassador must know the history of those foods and speak about them in Navajo.
"We need to educate our people to utilize plants as food that are tied to our land, culture and beliefs," she wrote in an email. More
