"This movie and LucasFilm helped us become part of something global. As Native people, we often feel forgotten and even intentionally left out of the story that is now the USA. 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧 𝙒𝙖𝙧𝙨: 𝘼 𝙉𝙚𝙬 𝙃𝙤𝙥𝙚 (𝙎ǫʼ𝙩𝙖𝙝 𝘼𝙣𝙖𝙖ʼ: 𝙎𝙞𝙞𝙝 𝙉á𝙝á𝙨𝙙𝙡įį) was a huge acknowledgment of our place as equals in the WORLD. It said, “Yes, you and your language are important."

The Center of Southwest Studies and are so excited to host 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫 next Thursday for a special (FREE) community presentation about the process of developing a Navajo translated Star Wars film! Following the presentation the Center will host an outdoor screening of the movie out on the courtyard, approx. 7:30 PM🍿

"The goal was to bring awareness to the loss of Native languages. My wife [Jennifer Wheeler, PhD] is a Navajo language teacher, so we were constantly thinking up ways to help our language. In the mid-1990s the idea of dubbing a major motion picture was discussed often around our dinner table. "

Born and raised in the Navajo Nation, Manuelito Wheeler is the former director of the Navajo Nation Museum where he worked with staff to advance innovative exhibitions and projects that influenced and preserved Navajo language and culture. With many years in the museum field, he developed a keen sense of how museums can be more effective as places of understanding and wonder. Wheeler earned a BA in art history from Arizona State University and, in 2023, was appointed by President Biden to the American Indian Arts Board of Trustees.
