After centuries of broken treaties and racist U.S. policies, Indigenous activists launched a bold—and controversial—campaign for justice.
Filmmaker Kayla Briët explores her Prairie Band Potawatomi roots through the teachings of her father. Weaving together the history, language, dance, and music of her tribe, Briët keeps her family's heritage alive and celebrates the beauty of culture. The Short Film Showcase spotlights exceptional short videos created by filmmakers from around the web and selected by National Geographic editors. The filmmakers created the content presented, and the opinions expressed are their own, not those of National Geographic Partners.
