How are Indigenous youth asserting their sovereignty and dismantling stereotypes through hip-hop? Join us for a conversation with Native youth who meld hip-hop and Indigenous beats and rhymes to construct their own narratives and create social change. Panelists: Mato Wayuhi (Oglala Lakota) and Talon Bazille Ducheneaux (Cheyenne River Lakota/Crow Creek Dakota). Moderated by Kyle T. Mays (Black/Saginaw Chippewa). Youth in Action: Conversations about Our Future is an online series hosted by the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian. These moderated panel discussions serve as a national platform to amplify the efforts of Native changemakers from across the Western Hemisphere who are engaged in civic and social justice work for Indigenous peoples.
