Squaw is an Algonquin word meaning girl or woman. It means nothing to the Dineh tribe.

Algonquin is as different from Dineh/Navaho as French from Finnish. Had the Americans never been discovered by the West, perhaps all these tribes would have evolved into countries, as distinct as European countries.

It never meant a woman’s genitals. That’s a myth/lie from a incorrect feminist professor on the Oprah Winfrey show in 1992!

I think you are quite right over it.

However, Qx almost lost his Adjunct prof job over it.
