✨Happy International Women’s Day!✨

In honor of today we wanted to celebrate the remarkable women who have served as MIASU.🔱 We had made a final banner that we displayed during Window Rock Fair parade that showcased our former MIASU above, but did not reveal the final list.

Ahéhee’!💛❤️🔱

++++ the value of Tribal cultural acumen when in a delicate situation between two different Tribes.

Tribal governments were not discussed. Flash forward to January 14, 2026, where Indigenous youth saw their Tribal leadership at work during the 31st Indian Nations & Tribes Legislative Day at the Arizona State Capitol. Tinhorn CX planted a few seeds as the youth workshop sponsor and as an exhibitor.
