This story is meant to be a small glimpse into the life of Navajo shepherds and pay respect to the sacred relationship between the Navajo people and their Navajo-Churro sheep. It’s commonly said that one must be Navajo to truly understand the depth of this sacred bond and what it means among families, clans and on an individual level. For that reason and more, this story was told by the shepherds themselves.
The Navajo Nation lies at the heart of the American Southwest. It spans over 27,000 square miles across the Four Corners region. This land is the center of Diné culture and home to over 300,000 Navajo people whose heritage dates back countless generations. At the core of this culture is a sacred, traditional way of life: The Navajo shepherd and the Navajo-Churro sheep.

I miss herding sheep as a little kid and enjoying the freedom among the sheep. 🐏 This is what I used to do before I was brought to the city life. I had no worries and fears inside of me at all. City life is the opposite way it's not the same life. I was happy as a little kid just me and the sheep. I would always have fun playing around by myself and keeping an eye on the sheep. Don't ever forget who you are and where you are from.

I’m confused on the direction of this video. Too much of hipster vibe with the black rim glasses 👓 the clothing didn’t look tattered like a real rancher. Should’ve just hired a cheii
