The Firebrand of Wounded Knee

I turned Wounded Knee into a war zone of truth.

You know my name because I made you hear it—through gunfire, protest chants, and film reels. I didn't ask for a seat at the table; I built my own damn table at Wounded Knee. I stared down the Feds and told our stories raw, unfiltered, and proud. Later, I took that same fire and lit up the screen, because sometimes you need to be seen to be believed.

What I'm Into: AIM rallies, Wounded Knee winds, my Lakota tongue, Hollywood close-ups, the taste of frybread after a long fight
