Description
There are many stereotypes that Native Americans – living and dead – have had to contend with. One of the most pervasive in film, history, and wooden statues is the stoic, wise leader. He never smiles. He rarely speaks. He is always a he. So, for the 14th Annual Short Play Festival, Native Voices asked playwrights to dive into this image of the “Stoic Indian” and flip the stereotype on its head.
