Brian Young: Yá'át'ééh. Shí éí Brian Young yinishyé. Hi, everyone. My name is Brian Young, and I am an enrolled member of the Navajo Nation. My last name, Young, it is not a common Navajo last name, like Yazzie or Begay, because when my paternal ancestors returned from Fort Sumner or Hwéeldi, a Mormon family gave my paternal ancestors the last name Young during the infancy of the Navajo Nation government.
