    Tee pees with peyote meetings and pow wow dancing are jus adopted by our people, we Navajos dine' people have our own tradition with hogans and corn pollen. I wish these documentaries show more of our own traditional ways of life. But I enjoy the story of how u carry yourself through family support, prayers and teachings. Thanks for representing the Dine' people and the whole native country

      Native or not, people in a general sense are entitled to pray as they wish. Maybe if another Dine PBR bullrider steps out of a hogan with corn pollen in hand, the theme of the Documentary
      would be different.
      ...or bring your game & rep your tribe like
      Stetson Lawrence.
      Keep it up KW!

    This little clip of a Native American bullrider is what makes us believe he's gonna be a role model for years to come. Yes peyote isn't really our religion but I've seen its power and it'll take him all the way to that last 8 second ride to win that gold buckle! Aho keyshawn from the Jim family in jeddito AZ!

And he dont even help the youth! Everyone thinks hes humble but he ain't, He can't act all big and cocky at the PBR, but here on the Rez hes a cocky lil kid, like dude you think your rank then take your riding skills to a higher level then staying on the Rez...Just Saying
