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 someone's attempt at being respectful to Natives. It's obvious that this was non-natives writing about native people.

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 adequate health care, etc. This show demonstrates that we need to talk about these things and sometimes we have to go to a non-native to talk about them.

This was my first crack at a tv show and I thought I would do more free form than my usual format. I did my research and discussed the positives, negatives, and gave some final thoughts. Also I recorded a new intro!  Lou Diamond Phillips again!? Well I talk about it...and why it's tolerable but still not okay.  Zahn McLarnon and Irene Bedard are the prominent Native actors that grace the first season and I'm here for it.

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 least furrowed their eyebrows during destruction of the Trading Post.  Did you know it was NOT a real trading post? They made this up at a empty warehouse in Georgia! So I talk a...2021-05-0844 minNative Film TalkNative Film TalkMagnificent Seven (2016)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 created.  This movie brought us Martin Sensmeier! This was his breakout film and he went on to have roles in West World, The Liberator, and Wind River! He's a hell of an actor that did a...2021-04-231h 02Anxiety and the ArtistAnxiety and the ArtistMindfulness Minute with Michael Ian CedarIn this bonus episode producer and leadership expert Michael Ian Cedar guides us through a short grounding exercise with a focus on gratitude.2021-04-0701 minTwindigenousTwindigenous8 - Native in the 90s and Now with Ian Allison of Native Film TalkThis week Kaley and Kara welcome their first ever guest, Ian Allison (Navajo), host and creator of one of our favorite podcasts, Native Film Talk.

I never gave a thought to the costume and wardrobe department. After meeting and getting to know Pilar, I am going to pay EXTRA attention to the costume design, artistry, and craftsmanship. She blew my mind, opened my eyes to appreciate a whole new side of film/TV shows. Started her career as a seamstress for Into the West in 2005, when the TV show needed her in a pinch! She loved her time working on the show, made such an impression, and kept working. Sixteen (16) years later Pilar has amassed an impressive body of...2021-03-2356 minNative Film TalkNative Film TalkReel Injun w/ TwindigenousReel Injun is one of a kind. This documentary eloquently and concisely presents the history of Native American representation in film, from the start to now.  Since the capability to record became available, Natives were on screen. There has been a fascination with Native people since colonization and this film delves into that fascination. Along the way, stereotypes were created and perpetuated in film. These stereotypes framed mindsets and opinions about who Native people were, to non-Native people. What blows my mind is it also frames the minds of Native people. Misrepresentation in film and television influence h...2021-03-091h 39After The Gig with Jesse HumphreyAfter The Gig with Jesse HumphreyIan Allison - “Song is king!”#74 .  Welcome to another episode of After the Gig with me…Jesse Humphrey.  On the show today I have my friend Ian Allison.  Ian is a badass bass player that tours with Eric Hutchinson, but when he isn’t on the road, he calls Minneapolis home.   Ian has recorded with a multitude of artist, and over the course of the pandemic he has turned his home into a content creation laboratory!  He is the perfect person to have in the trenches with you because of his inclusiveness, positivity, and his ability to get you excited about songs.  If you want to learn d...2021-03-021h 40Native Film TalkNative Film TalkThe Quick and the DeadThe Quick and the Dead! How the hell did this movie manage to get this much star power!? Sharon Stone, Russell Crowe, Leonardo DiCaprio, Gene Hackman, and Jonothon Gill (Spotted Horse)!? Native actor that arguably has the most suspenseful gun fight in the film!  Combine a single elimination tournament with a spoof western, you get one of the best westerns of all time...yeah I went there!  This movie was an homage to the western drama while being an exaggeration of all the classic western characters.

(Shoutout to Michael Jordan) I had to do the number justice and I feel like I did with this guest. Acee Agoyo is a co-founding member of Indianz.com and has been a journalist for the past 21 years. He is a Native man that saw a void in media coverage and jumped at the opportunity to fill it. I admire that tenacity and willingness to thrust yourself into that void, I attempt to do that with my podcast.  Listen to this interview as we discuss Native representation in mainstream media, h...2021-02-151h 12Native Film TalkNative Film TalkLet's Talk Native Film News!I go on a 20 minute rant about pretendians. If you're not about that, I don't recommend you listen to this one, skip it until next week. As a rez kid, it hits me different than someone not from a rez, or not brown, or not accepted by their community, or not enrolled because of government bullsh*t. Truth is, the Native experience is so broad that the very concept of "Pretendians" hits different and means different things for everyone. So if you're interested to hear one Native person's perspective, listen in.  The news about Michelle Latimer is j...2021-02-0846 minNative Film TalkNative Film TalkWonder WomanA Native is acknowledge in the same world as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman!

Most important she is all around wholesome person and advocate for accurate representation of Natives on screen. I enjoyed talking with her about why it's hard to break into Hollywood when you don't have the right look, her TikTok following, where she plans to take her career, and the overall outlook of Native representation in film and television.  Hope yo...2021-01-231h 04Native Film TalkNative Film TalkPredator (1987)"There's something out there waiting for us...it ain't no man."

A community that had the highest suicide rate in North America, glommed onto the game of Lacrosse. Introduced to them by a non-Native outsider Russ Sheppard. He uses the game to distract the students from their reality but also to teach them about becoming a community and not just teammates. This movie is THE Native sports movie because there are nothing but Indigenous kids acting in roles where Indigenous kids should be acting. This is a film documents a community's struggles...2021-01-101h 10Native Film TalkNative Film TalkThunderheartThis 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. Government, Guardians of the Oglala Nation (GOONs), etc. This movie is pretty darn accurate.  Accuracy aside, this is a tale of Ray Levoi (Kilmer) who is an FBI Agent with blood connections to the Oglala Sioux.

Safe to say, he's invited to any cookout, pow wow, potluck, etc. Jay is a real one, he stuck his neck out for a message that he knew needed to be told.  That message is Charlene Teters' story from her time as a graduate student at the University of Illinois, and her opposition of the school mascot, Chief Illiniwek.  Jay is a special individual that is truly an ally for Indian Country.
