Good for you, Jean-Paul and Rebecca Valette, for preserving this excellent collection of Navajo works. I would have called them “rugs”, but some clearly are not. Pay attention to the two that were made by students, longing for home, while forced to attend “boarding school”. Don’t get me started

Don’t get me started on these “schools”. The most positive view I can manage is that they were well-intentioned. Unfortunately “improvement” meant eradicating native languages and cultures.
