Camping within the Navajo Nation
Has anyone ever camped in Tuba City, AZ on Navajo Nation property? Is it safe?

Use or non-use of the tern "Indian" is not so straight forward. I spent a year as a community organizer in a off-reservation Lakota Sioux community in the early '70s. I continue to work with several tribal communities in Alaska and Washington State. Some current examples:
Swinomish Indian Tribal Community
Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians
Both of these tribal communities have been very generous in donating to the Oso Landslide victims. They are good neighbors.
Brian Cladoosby of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community is the current President of the National Congress of American Indians.
It is usually best to inquire, or ask. . . a bit of research helps beforehand. I generally do try to avoid the use of the term "Indian" unless it helps to describe a group of tribal members.
