What this means is that for the first time mainstream America will be introduced to images of Native Americans-Aboriginals-Indians that weren’t fabricated in the TNT penthouse offices or in grainy black-and-white westerns or plastered on motel signs along Route 66. In other words, beyond leather-and-feathers, casinos, Pine Ridge, and Chief Wahoo.
And more. An educational program, based out of metro D.C., which will take emerging media talent from Indian Country (for those of you who don’t know, that’s everywhere) and provide hands on training, and more importantly, opportunities for young Natives to put their skills to the test.
