(Recorded January 10, 2022)
Using his character, Terry Thomas, from Peacock’s new show “RUTHERFORD FALLS,” as a mechanism for disruption, Associate Professor Michael Greyeyes discusses his work inside Hollywood’s media making machine and the ways Indigenous artists are reclaiming narrative sovereignty.
In this episode... Michael Greyeyes remembers the trials and tribulations of Indigenous representations of Hollywood in the 90s and 2000s, but examines the changes he has seen more recently and how contemporary Indigenous filmmakers and show runners are reimagining our present and future.
