Manage episode 296031693 series 2871708
Allie is many things, an activist, actor, writer, founder, etc. She's a leader and most recently founded Protect the Sacred. An organization founded to combat COVID-19 on the Navajo Nation. With the many challenges that the Navajo Nation faced, we needed help and Allie saw a way to fill a void and just went for it. Time was not on our side with COVID-19 and the Navajo people so her quick action saved lives and made a lasting impact on the youth.
She was also in the film industry prior to her current role, running Protect the Sacred. We delve into her experiences as an Indigenous woman in the film industry but also how that informed her about where Hollywood is with Native representation.
Listen to this conversation and enjoy!
