IllumiNative On-Air
For decades, the lack of representation and information about Native American peoples has perpetuated damaging myths and stereotypes. IllumiNative is an initiative, created and led by Natives, to challenge the negative narrative that surrounds Native communities and ensure accurate and authentic portrayals of Native communities are present in pop culture and media. IllumiNative seeks to change that. Our brand new podcast, IllumiNative On-Air, will showcase stories and news from all over Indian Country to support and illuminate contemporary Native voices, stories, and issues to audiences here on Turtle Island and beyond.
