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.
I discuss the anti-black criticism surround this show, specifically targeted around this particular episode. I also talk about some of the great topics raised, like sexualization of Native women. How Native women are always the caregivers but never taken care of by their communities. Also dead beat dads in Indian Country and where this episode got it right and not so right.
I close it out with positives, negatives, and final thoughts. Listen soon for the upcoming episode on episode 5, my FAVORITE of season 1.
Enjoy!
