Minute Out In It: Ha'a Gyoh (full film)

Part I: “For me and the Havasupai people who came here today, we came to recognize this area as our own, and to officially change the name to Havasupai Gardens, and back to our traditional name, Ha’a Gyoh. To us, that is very important because it’s a symbol, almost saying that this is always going to be part of us now-forever. What was once taken away, is slowly being returned. The first step is a name, the second step is we are here-physically.” Spend a Minute Out In It in the first phase of healing: recognition.
Part II: In an oral interview, Carletta Tilousi recalled, "I helped facilitate with the Grand Canyon Park [sic] to bring approximately twenty Havasupai elders about fifteen years ago. And when they came here, the first thing they said was, 'We didn't forget you. We didn't forget you, Havasupai Gardens. Just know that--please forgive us, we never forgot you. We were just asked to leave. But now we are back." Spend a Minute Out In It witnessing, through song and prayer, life returning to a never-forgotten land.
Part III: “I believe more younger Havasupai need to be here, to remember that they came from very strong ancestors, that learned how to farm, how to exist in a canyon. Once you learn that, you become one with the area. You feel a sense of belonging, a sense of identity. This is where they need to come-to see, to feel this land.” Spend a Minute Out In It with the Havasupai people, as they celebrate the name change of Indian Garden to Havasupai Gardens, and pass on the knowledge of their lands to the next generation.
