In this episode of Reconciliation Rising, we interview Jordan Dresser, a documentary filmmaker and chairman of the Northern Arapaho Nation on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming.

Dresser has led efforts to regain Arapaho cultural artifacts from non-Indian collectors so that they can be displayed in his tribe’s own museum and contribute to cultural revitalization.

He also talks to us about the importance of Native writers and filmmakers controlling their own narratives and how healing it can be for Native nations to reclaim their ancestors.
