"My Sister, Miss Indian World!" - My Interview with Shayai Lucero, Part 1

Send us Fan MailOn today's episode, I bring you part one  of my conversation with my good friend and sister, the former Miss Indian World 1997, Shayai Lucero. It must be pageant month,  the current Miss Indian New Mexico graced the Rez Dog studios with her story on  Episode 25.  For my next interview, I have lined up, the Miss United States contestant Miss Rhode Island, to share her thoughts and feelings of a perfect date. Joking aside, come share with me, Shayai’s journey, her early years growing up in the Pueblos of Acoma and Laguna, her educational path and eventual run for Miss Indian World. So sit back, relax with a bowl of pumpkin spiced atole, pumpkin spiced oven bread and pumpkin spiced dried deer meat and enjoy my conversation with Shayai. To learn more about the Gathering of Nations Powwow and the Miss Indian World Competition, please click on the link below.www.gatheringofnations.com The intro and outro music in this episode is the Gathering of Nations grand entry song, composed by Arlee Neskahi of the White Eagle Singers, sung by the Rio Grande Singers and invited drums from across Turtle Island.
