Diné bizaad dóó nihe’ó’ool’į bee ‘aniit’é
We are Language & Culture

By Dr. Andy Nez

One’s journey to understanding self and the world may derive from Diné philosophy and language (nihizaad). As life often changes discourse and some experiences become burdensome, the holidays are a perfect time to reconnect, rejuvenate, and regenerate. Diné renowned educator, Vincent Werito, emphasizes the importance of identity and rekindling one’s deep affinity for the sake of the next generation through language. To achieve this assertion, culture must considerably remain an intricate part of every generation.
