You can't say squaw anymore🤣😂. The Squaw Peak in Arizona was renamed in 2022 as part of a federal order to remove the ethnic slur “squaw” from federally owned places in the United States.
I lived in Phoenix 1996-2004. Highway 51is a major road that goes from just north of the airport up to the 101 loop. It was originally named Squaw Peak Freeway, but due to someone thinking that was offensive to Native Americans, they renamed it Piestewa Peak Freeway.
Lori Piestewa was a female soldier who died in Iraq when she crashed her Humvee into a parked truck. Isn't it ironic that they named a 65mph local highway after a female driver who crashed into a parked truck?
Sqauw heap big crazy.
