Vision Maker Media’s four-part Growing Native series focuses on reclaiming traditional indigenous knowledge and food ways to address critical issues of health and wellness, the environment and human rights. Oklahoma is home to thirty-nine federally recognized tribes. Nowhere in North America will you find such diversity among Native Peoples, and nowhere will you find a more tragic history. Host Moses Brings Plenty (Oglala Lakota) guides this episode of Growing Native on a journey through Oklahoma’s past and present.
