HISTORY!

Wes Studi joins an amazing list of Honorary Award winners like Robert Redford, Spike Lee, Charlie Chaplan, Akira Kurosawa, James Earl Jones, and the list goes on! These people are recognized for significant achievements in their craft, over an entire career.

Wes trailblazed an impressive career where he amazed and dazzled audiences with roles like Toughest Pawnee in Dances with Wolves, Magua in The Last of the Mohicans, and Geronimo in Geronimo: An American Legend. Added depth, intelligence, and language to characters that would be represented inadequately otherwise.

Wes changed the trajectory of an industry that historically misrepresented Native Americans on screen, and is recognized for it on this night. Listen as I recap Wes's career, life, and the presenting of the award itself.

Also I explain, what the hell an actual Honorary Award (Oscar) is and why it's so significant!

Bottom line...a Native won an Oscar...get excited! Be excited and listen as I dedicate an episode to the G.O.A.T.
