Perpetuating the Mythical Native

Tue. 4/10 11a: Native American characters can be seen in video games like “Turok - Dinosaur Hunter,” “Mortal Kombat” and “Gun.” Comic books also feature a large cast of Native characters dressed in the stereotypical feathers, leathers and war paint. Do you take pride when you come across a Native character in popular culture even though it does not look like a person from your tribe? Do Native Americans perpetuate the mythical Native character they claim to despise? Guests include Michael Sheyahshe (Caddo) Author of Native Americans in Comic Books.
