Welcome to the inaugural post of my new blog series, “NDN All-Stars: Video Archeology.” As a passionate advocate for celebrating Native American excellence in sports, I am really excited to dive into this project, where I’ll be uncovering and showcasing some of the most extraordinary moments captured on video featuring the incredible athletes from my NDN All-Stars roster at ndnallstars.com.
What to Expect from “NDN All-Stars: Video Archeology”
Through hours of searching, I will find videos scattered across the internet that highlight the amazing talent, dedication, and passion of Native American athletes who have left their mark in various sports. Whether it’s a breathtaking game-winning shot, a powerful run that led to a victory, a well-crafted documentary, or an inspiring interview, these videos offer a window into the rich athletic heritage of Native American sports personalities.
In each blog post, I’ll share a handpicked video that features one of my NDN All-Stars. Along with the video, I’ll provide a brief description, offering context and background on the video. This will be followed by my personal reflections, where I’ll dive into why this particular clip stands out and what it represents in the broader narrative of Native American achievements in sports.
Why This Series Matters
“NDN All-Stars: Video Archeology” is more than just a collection of cool sports clips—it’s about preserving and amplifying the stories of Native American athletes who have often been overlooked in mainstream sports media. These athletes are trailblazers, role models, and inspirations, and their stories deserve to be told and retold.
For too long, the contributions of Native American athletes have been marginalized or forgotten. This series aims to change that by bringing these stories back to the forefront, making them accessible to everyone, especially the younger generation who may not be aware of the rich legacy of Native excellence in sports.
