From "Commencement Address to the Santa Fe Indian School"
11 So, graduates, this is my story. And I'm sharing this with you because when I heard that-when you were first brainstorming about who to
invite to your commencement and someone suggested me or my husband, some of you thought that was an impossible dream, that it just
wasn't realistic to think that people like us would ever visit a school like yours. Well, today, I want you to know that there is nowhere I would
rather be than right here with all of you.
12 Because while I might have grown up across the country, and while my journey may be a bit different than yours, when I learned about
all of you, it was clear to me that our stories are connected, and that your values--the values that infuse this school-are the very same
values that my parents handed down to me.
