Within Native communities across America, warrior traditions inspire incredible athletes and connect people to combat, games, and glory. This episode includes teen boxer Mariah Bahe (Navajo), ultrarunner Christian Gering (Katishtya), and Indian horse relay riders from the Flathead National Reservation in Montana. Today’s Native warriors are connected by an incredible history and drive to strengthen and empower themselves, their cultures, communities, and their Nations.
