more from VC2 Top Contenders US:

Anthea grew up in the city, but she is curious about her Navajo roots and seeing where she comes from. She takes a trip with her family back to her birthplace, the place where they buried her umbilical cord and rolled her in the first snow as a baby.

    • I am totally thrown off on "Spanish" being Anthea's first language. Both her parents originated from the Navajo reservation (Red Lake and Crown Point, Arizona) but yet taught her Spanish and Navajo? Despite the confusion, best of luck Anthea.

    • the dynamics of this pod are extremely interesting. the blatant and inexplicable displacement and genocide of the Native American people is a gouged scar that should ail politicians to this day. Yet the reservations remain entrenched in poverty, and the cultures, that had identified numerous groups of people is being slowly eradicated.
