We flew back home late last night and only have a few days to unpack and reset before we’re on the road again. Friday we’ll be heading out to California for the Sycuan Pow Wow.
The next three weekends we’ll be live from California, Sycuan, San Manuel, and Morongo. I love that these amazing Pow Wows are lined up back-to-back. This will be our first time at Sycuan, and I’m excited to experience it, even if we won’t have much time to explore San Diego.
This past weekend was extra special since we got to spend time with Brooke in Florida. And yes…I survived Halloween Horror Nights! It was my first time ever doing haunted houses, and wow, I jumped right into the deep end. The detail was incredible, the scare actors were next-level, and the Jason Universe house was by far the scariest, Jason was everywhere!
Do you do haunted houses?

Calling all film enthusiasts: If you're searching for a captivating cinematic experience that dives into the Indigenous American culture, look no further!
While Native people and their stories are historically underrepresented in television and film, we are seeing more portrayals and storylines recently pop up in the media. Despite a general lack of representation, the classic Indigenous favorites everyone loves continue to be in the spotlight. These remarkable films weave together powerful narratives. They also shed light on historical struggles, showcase modern resilience, and celebrate the diverse heritage of Indigenous communities.
It is no secret that Native Americans have had a rough history, filled with segregation, hate, and discrimination. For a long time, Hollywood films represented Native Americans unfavorably, representing them in marginalized and inaccurate behavior. Indian filmmakers and Native American actors had to fight to develop an artistic voice for themselves, carving out space for accurate expression in film.
Today, modern Native American movies have progressed significantly in the representation, compared to popular Western films that featured cowboys who pitted against or were aided by some one-dimensional Indian characters. Though I commend all Native American actors, there have been many incredible ones that I have favored, and I would love to share them with you
