Grey's Anatomy S15E17 - Tradition 58:05

3y ago58:05

58:05

This unfortunately came out in a year where we were graced with superior Native representation in television, Rutherford Falls and Reservation Dogs. Fortunately for us we know better now because of those shows. Grey's Anatomy having Natives, at face value sounds amazing. The actual product though, left much to be desired. I felt like I was watching…

Give that man an Ax! What a way to end the season, Elora is the only one that ends up leaving?! And she ends up leaving with Jackie?! From the sworn rival gang the NDN Mafia?! Definitely some curveballs in this season finale but it was a great way to leave us wanting more for season 2. I wrap up my miniseries on the Reservation Dogs season 1 and ho…

Reservation Dogs Episode 7 46:51

3y ago46:51

46:51

What a great episode! Unfortunately this is what accurate Native representation looks like sometimes, suicide. While it dealt with an issue that we commonly see in our communities, it did it in a way that informs us of the circumstances that cultivate those high rates. Addiction, lack of opportunity, language loss, culture loss, poor access to adeq…

This is the Willie Jack episode we've all been waiting for...it's not quite what we expected but over delivered in my opinion. Willie Jack and her dad set out to hunt the deer that has eluded them, Chunk. While out and about Leon shares with Willie Jack his encounter of Tallman and they discuss the circumstances around Daniel's death. This is a won…

This episode was real...like very real and strange. Absent father, people who have a weird Native fetish, phallic beaded jewelry, and of course frybread at diabetes awareness fairs.

Hi there everybody! Episode 2 brings us to the IHS clinic, of all places. I discuss how this is something I didn't know I needed, real life interactions at the clinic.

Aho Young Warrior! I decided to do a mini season the show. The next eight episodes will be dedicated to the show. All other work feels like table scraps right now.

Hollywood Diversity Report 46:04

46:04

Well well well...the diversity report shoes what we already knew. Natives are not present in Film and Television. However, how much does this matter when we're talking about the most viewed and highest grossing film and TV? Should Natives represent a large market share of that segment? Does it make sense for us to grow? Is there a legitimate case t…

Who expected to see a Native trading post destroyed in a post apocalyptic world? I sure didn't expect to see that when I saw this movie. That's why it's fun to talk about this native representation, because NO ONE is going to talk about this movie. I find that fascinating when it happens, because I'm positive every Native that saw this at the very …

This 2016 movie directed by Antoine Fuqua, better than most remakes. Frankly we're exhausted with remakes at this point. So it's refreshing to see one that comes out that's unique but also just a good stand alone movie. Thank god there isn't going to be a sequel too, can't stand it when remakes go and remake it but also extend the universe they cre…

This 1992 movie is based on real events. Director Michael Apted also releaded Incident At Oglala, which can be a companion film to this movie, as they overlap so much. While this is a fictional tale, it is 100% inspired by true events. There are many parallels from the American Indian Movement, involvement of the Tribal Chairperson with the U.S. Go…
