Popcorn Eschaton 30 - 'Love And Fury' And 'Mekko'

Zebras In America

Scott and John take a look at two films by 'Reservation Dogs' co-creator Sterlin Harjo: the 2020 documentary on Native American artists 'Love and Fury' and the 2015 drama of communal darkness and spiritual rejuvenation 'Mekko.' They also discuss the relative lack of Indigenous representation behind the camera and how America is determined to forget the original sin of genocide that is at the core of its founding.
