Michelle Obama makes surprise visit to Gila River Indian Community students

https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/pinal/2019/02/12/michelle-obama-surprises-gila-river-students-arizona/2852909002/



Michelle Obama surprised students of the Gila River Indian Community on Tuesday.

The former first lady joined Gila River Gov. Stephen Roe Lewis, who already was meeting with the students at the Huhugam Heritage Center on the reservation. The select handful of students was sitting around a table when the governor grinned and appeared shocked as Obama entered the room.

Obama was in Phoenix for a stop on her book tour.

She met with the students to hear their stories about life on the Gila River Reservation south of Phoenix.

She surely was referring to the real authentic, quintessential First Lady: Michelle Obama.
