    It’s trippy looking at these old photos, isn’t it? I mean wtf argh lmao, Leonard Nimoy in an “Indian” costume. Wow.

    Side note. It took 70 years, but now instead of shit like this we have movies like Prey being made (omfg tell me you’ve seen it? I thought it was amazing). So we’ve come a long way.

      Yes I have seen it … my whole family especially everyone under the age of 30 were all excited about and we all watched it when it first came out.

      Everyone was happy that the winning underdog this time was a young Comanche girl and instead of white actors playing Native roles, or even ethnic actors playing Native roles … it was actual Native actors portraying Indigenous roles in the film.
