Blackfire is a Dine (Navajo) punk-rock band from Arizona. With a musical sound that is both, angry and redemptive, traditional and modern, the siblings attempt to transfer their dark history of forced relocation, racism, and human rights violations, into a form of creative expression and youth empowerment. On the road, at home, and in the studio, their unique lives provide a dynamic insight into the contemporary issues facing a generation of Native American youth.
