Westerns are full of stereotypes. Helen Lewis wants to reexamine a few of these stereotypes, especially those about Native American women. These women were often depicted as more than just background or sexual purpose, but as healers, counselors and warriors. Join her as she presents Women of Warmth, Wisdom, and War.
