Crittenden (Navajo) is a teen whose family lives on
the Hopi Partition Line in Big Mountain, Arizona, the former Navajo/Hopi
Joint Use Area now under Hopi jurisdiction. Crittenden was introduced
to video by Indigenous Action Media, and edited her piece at the
Third World Majority's Digital Storytelling Workshop in Oakland,
California. Her work reflects her family's history of activism
in the area's land and mining issues. Crittenden hopes to continue
making activist videos and plans to attend college.
Regarding the possibility of expanding video training to students
on the Navajo reservation: "They have a lot of things that
they want to talk about and get out into the world. I think it
would be a really good idea for them to express themselves. I
want to say to all the youth that whatever they think is right
they should do, what they feel is what they should stick to and
to keep to their goals."
