  2. Yes! I think she was more proud of that then any Hollywood award.
  3. I was watching videos of Lily being presented yesterday with the tall headdress by the Blackfeet Nation for her accomplishments on KOTFM. So cool!
  4. Good! Hopefully they will leave Leo out of it, because I don’t believe he did anything wrong.
  5. It was widely reported each and every time that it was Diddy’s yacht or Diddy’s party with the accompanying pictures. You all have short memories. Again I don’t think he did anything, but I’m sure he’s not thrilled about the prospect of possibly being questioned by the FBI. I sure as hell don’t like doing it. I feel for him if he gets wrapped up on all this. Saw a video of a party Diddy was at this week and he was sitting all alone. Everyone is avoiding him like the plague. Even Flav a Flav ignored him. Obviously, most of Hollywood knew this coming.
  6. That’s great! I’m sure he’s fine. The house wasn’t raided until last night, so he wouldn’t have known about it yet in these pics.
  7. First of all, I stated twice that I don’t believe Leo has done anything just that he may be subpoenaed and questioned. I get subpoenaed all the time on sexual abuse cases. It doesn’t mean I am the perpetrator. I know he was on Diddy’s yacht multiple times the same way all of you know, because of all the pictures of him on Diddy’s yacht.
  8. Not saying Leo has done anything, just that he has been in attendance at Diddy’s parties and on his yacht where sex trafficking probably occurred. Again not saying Leo was a part of any of that. I certainly hope not. However, just like with Epstein, the logs of the people who were on the yachts and at parties, etc… could be pulled and those people could be subpoenaed and questioned, etc.
  9. I have to wonder what Leo thinks of Diddy’s house being raided last night and if he is nervous.
  10. Leo and Marty with Osage artist Addie Roanhorse. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/XdLj3cYm1AnvDfA9/?
  11. I forgot I picked this up when I was in Fairfax this weekend. Tells about where scenes where filmed.
  12. This seems to be all of social media today. Especially, since KOTFM won absolutely nothing. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL8K7Q3q/
  13. This was my favorite part of the Oscars. Lily tearing up at the end of it made me tear up. They actually had Natives performing on The Oscar stage. Wow! Poor Emma. Did you see her face when they said her name? She looked like she was dreading it. She knows she will catch a lot of flack for taking it from Lily. Not Emma’s fault though.
  14. Why didn't it work out? I don’t know. 🤷🏻‍♀️ The scene I would have been in never showed up at all in the show. I’m not sure if someone else got the roll and filmed it and the scene was then edited out, or they just decided not to do the scene at all. It was fun just auditioning and filming/screen testing the scene during the callback. This all happened around this time last year.
  15. I love Reservation Dogs! I even auditioned for it and got a call back. Just like KOTFM a lot of people I know are either in Reservation Dogs or work as crew in it. I used to work with one of the producers back in the day (non-movie stuff). He also plays the character called Spirit.
  16. @Jade Bahr I have never seen Yellowstone or Twilight, so I cannot comment on their indigenous portrayal. Your questions are complicated ones just due to the sheer vastness of the North American continent and how many separate indigenous people live in North America (US, Canada, Mexico). In the US alone there are 574 federally recognized tribes and hundreds more that are not federally recognized. I live in the state of Oklahoma which has 67 tribes, 39 of those are federally recognized. You cannot compare tribes to each other. They have different language, culture, histories, and colonization traumas. I myself have the same questions as you do. I have never seen or experienced the “reservations” they talk about in the movies. That doesn’t mean they don’t exist somewhere. The may exist in North Dakota or Arizona or Montana, but those states are thousands of miles from where I live and I have never visited them. The “reservations” portrayed in movies do not exist and have never existed in Oklahoma. In Oklahoma, the word reservation is just another word for territory, boundary, or jurisdiction. A person traveling around Oklahoma would have no idea which tribe’s boundary they were in unless you have a map that gives you that specific information. The entire state of Oklahoma is Indian Territory, so if you are in the state of Oklahoma, you are in some tribe’s boundary/reservation. For example, Pawhuska and Fairfax are in Osage territory/reservation. Part of Tulsa is in Cherokee territory and the rest of Tulsa is in Creek territory and at the same time Pawhuska, Fairfax, and Tulsa are in Oklahoma State territory. The boundaries are used in the same way county or town boundaries are used. Any Native person can live wherever in the world they want to. We are not different than any other human being. I understand your question though, and no there is no law dictating where or how we live. We attend all the same schools, universities, hospitals, eat at all the same restaurants, go to all the same movie theatres, sporting events. Just like in KOTFM, the white people and the native people lived in the same neighborhoods, went to the same bars, played in the same pool halls, shopped in the same stores, walked up and down the same streets, participated in the same parades, rode the same trains. I live within the boundaries of Cherokee Nation. In fact, I live in Tahlequah which is the capitol of Cherokee Nation. On the street where I live, there are White, Black, Asian, Puerto Rican, Cherokee, Creek, Osage, and Ponca people living in the houses, just like anywhere else in the US. Below are a couple of maps of the tribal boundaries in Oklahoma. The first one hangs in my house. I included the second one just because it is easier to read. I live in Cherokee Nation which covers 14 counties in northeastern Oklahoma, which is the size of the state of Vermont.
  17. The Pawhuska Library is closed on weekends, and the Osage Museum didn’t have it and if even they did, you can’t take photos or video inside the museum. However, we went to a shop in Fairfax and I bought a few items including a signed copy of KOTFM book and I took the below pictures. I will go back to Pawhuska on a day the library is open and try again for pictures of the Behind the Scenes book. .
  18. I will be in Pawhuska/Fairfax this weekend and was going to try and see if I could get some pix of the KOTFM behind the scenes book. However, it appears the two places that have it may be closed this weekend. I’ll still give it a try.
  19. I’m so excited for this. Not many people get to experience this live and in person.
  20. I grabbed a still shot where you can see the camera crew in the back.
  21. The “Why We Wear Red” movement is used to bring awareness to the lack of Native women in film and media and is also linked to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.
  22. Videos of Leo filming in Sacramento. RPReplay_Final1708834032.mov RPReplay_Final1708834032.mov
