Battling skinwalkers and a book about them by Navajo couple
On a Canyon Del Muerto trailer front, Joanne Teller and Norman Blackwater wage a dual fight. They battle skinwalkers and other spirits while trying to sell 3500 copies of The Navajo Skinwalker Witchcraft and Related Phenomena, printed at their expense. The couple controls content to avoid accusations of exploitation, yet sales total only about 600 through local outlets. Teller, a self described medicine woman, and Blackwater aim to empower Navajos to confront sorcery and witchcraft, though many remain wary of the superstition surrounding skinwalking.
