Meet Our People – The Enduring Spirit of the Chickasaw Nation

Chickasaw Chad Burris is an attorney and film producer and says he is honored to have premiered all of his films at the Sundance Film Festival. He explains that mainstream cinema has perpetuated a stereotypical image of Native Americans—that all Indians look and act the same way. Burris enjoys being part of a movement in independent film to show a more realistic portrait of today's Native Americans.
