Journal 3 from Charles Robinson

Part One: I Eccentricity is defined as strange or unconventional behavior. I find that it is encourage when we are told to think for ourselves, or in other words form our own thoughts and opinions. It becomes productive when people act with autonomy and therefore is valued when autonomy is valued. I find eccentricity is often discouraged when obedience is emphasized over free- thinking and self-governance.
I see eccentricity in my self when I engage in my hobbies. I like to collect video games. I started collecting trading cards, then I went to coins, and now I collect hard copies of video games. I find that my desire to collect motivates me to work, however I tend to prioritize my collection and collecting new games over many other parts of my life.I tend to think that my family is happy I have a hobby, but are not always enthusiastic about my collection and its impact on my life.
Part Two: My question was who were the other leaders in the Big Mountain movement.

I found a article describing the relocation of the navajos and mentions the tribal chairman of the Navajos, Peterson Zah, and the tribal chairman of the Hopi, Ivan Sidney. I have found other articles from different sources confirming some of the information in the article.
