Cal Nez is miles away from the Navajo Nation, where he was raised by Navajo-speaking grandparents.||As president of the new Utah Native American Chamber of Commerce, Nez says it's fitting that the eagle feather -- held sacred by most American Indian cultures -- is incorporated into the chamber's logo.||"It is time for the Native-American community to rekindle our entrepreneurial spirit," Nez told a gathering of business owners and local, state and tribal officials.
