CORRECTS TO ARIZONA - In this undated photo Miss Navajo Pageant hopeful Lailauni Moore prepares fry bread after the sheep butchering competition at the Navajo Nation Fairgrounds in Window Rock, Ariz. The Miss Navajo Nation pageant is parting ways with fry bread, the fluffy, golden brown delicacy that’s become a symbol of Native American culture but is rooted in oppression. Women vying for the crown this week in Window Rock will prepare traditional Navajo foods instead, like blue corn mush or a cake made at puberty ceremonies. (Adron Gardner/Gallup Independent via AP)
