DESCRIPTION:In 1942, the United States Marine Corps selected 29 Navajo men to create a code based on the Navajo language and are commonly referred as Navajo Code Talkers. An excerpt from the book, &ldquo;Navajo Code Talkers have often been questioned about why they wanted to fight in a war to help the US government &ndash; the same government that removed the Dine&rsquo; from their homelands and forced them to attend boarding schools. War creates an imbalance for individuals and their connection to their homelands. War goes against hozho, the traditional Dine&rsquo; teaching of balance. Some Navajo Code Talkers enlisted in order to restore balance, protect their homelands, and help end the war.&rdquo; Date November 11, 2024 Time 11:30 am Location Henderson Fine Arts Center, Room 9012 For more information, email NAC@sanjuancollege.edu or call (505) 566-3321.
