Young skateboarder Billy Tsosie is quick to take on kids who tease him about his Native American heritage, and equally quick to jump into a fight with the kid who kicks his little cousin, Shawna.
When he interacts with his "rellies" on the Navajo reservation for the first time in his short life, he becomes proud of being Dine. Through the teaching of his older cousins, his uncles, great-grandmother, and Spiderwoman herself, he comes to understand the meaning of hozho, a Navajo term for "walking in beauty."
