Indigemedia: Navigating Native American Representation in Film and Media

Please join us on Friday, January 22nd for Indigemedia: Navigating Native American Representation in Film & Media. This event will feature a panel of Native Americans in the film/TV industry discussing the importance of representation, facing stereotypes, overcoming barriers, and ways they think we can begin to change the narrative of the historically inaccurate representation of Native Americans in the industry.

Our panelists include actress Sivan Alyra Rose (star of Netflix's Chambers), writer/producer Jason Gavin (Chambers, Roswell New Mexico, and Friday Night Lights) and writer/director Tazbah Rose Chavez (Your Name Isn't English, Resident Alien, Rutherford Falls, and Reservation Dogs).
