Reader - I'm writing this from our 30th anniversary trip, somewhere between an afternoon nap and catching up on work that doesn't take a vacation just because we did.
If you want to follow along in real time, come on over to my personal Facebook page, I'm posting as we go.
Kelli's spending part of this afternoon adding more pow wows to the calendar. It's been a busy season, and she's not about to let a celebration slow that down.
Speaking of busy seasons: we're live streaming again this weekend, this time from Sisseton, SD.
PS - I started a brand new free weekly newsletter called This Week Around Indian Country. Every Thursday, I hand-pick 10 news stories from across Indian Country and drop them straight in your inbox. Politics, culture, gaming, events, the stories that matter. It's free, it's weekly, and if you're not already on it, I'll drop a link below. First issue already went out and the response was great.
You've seen them on the big screen and binge-watched their shows. But how well do you really know Native American actors, movies, and TV?
From the groundbreaking indie films that started it all to the Emmy-winning series lighting up streaming right now, Native talent has been shaping Hollywood for decades β and the stories just keep getting better.
Joe Big Mountain comes from the Mohawk, Cree & Comanche Nations. He grew up participating in Pow-wows & educational performances - by doing so, he was encouraged by his family to start crafting at a young age and took to quilling. He uses traditional and contemporary techniques to enhance his craft to make each piece unique to his own. He hopes to continue this art and keep traditions alive by teaching his children to carry on a legacy of their own. Big Mountain takes great pride in his artwork, creating heirloom pieces to be passed on for generations.
