Hollywood has long overlooked the Tongva people, but this episode explores the evolving representation of Native Americans in film, featuring blockbuster actors and highlighting progress toward inclusivity. Tesla Wolfe, a dancer and actor from an Oklahoma reservation, inspires Indigenous youth to pursue their dreams despite challenges. This episode also showcases an art installation honoring the Karuk tribe's-controlled burn practices and historian Jackie Nunez's efforts to preserve the history of California's Mission Indigenous peoples.

Nominated for the Diversify TV Award - Best Non-Scripted Series for Representation of Race and Ethnicity – 2024 Diversity TV Awards, MIPCOM CANNES
