@RIPCraigjackson Why would you disrespect another culture just because they are not your own culture? To call another group of people names to degrade them is the ultimate sign of disrespect and it'll come back to you in life. I'm pretty sure someone could pick your imperfections apart and make you look like a fool also. Why not be happy for what people are doing to keep their culture going instead of making a mockery of it. You are the problem and not the solution.,

@RIPCraigjackson No matter how much we explain, they will never understand the difficult process.

Very informative! Beautiful artwork. I drove through Zuni on my way to El Morro National Monument last year. Will be stopping for a visit in Zuni next time.
