Identifier: CAC_CC_109_5_38_19_0094

Staff Only

The text contains information about the relocation of the Navajo tribe from Hopi land. The process has been studied and evaluated by many independent entities, and it has been determined that relocation is necessary in order to minimize the suffering of both the Hopi and Navajo people. However, the Navajo tribe has not demonstrated any desire to comply with the law, and a small minority of people are refusing to move. The question is whether or not the law should be changed just for them. The answer is no; the law should be upheld and the Navajo tribe should be forced to comply.
