This week’s guest is Donnie Wetzel Jr., tribal liaison for the Montana Department of Labor and Industry. Donnie is also the founder of Identity, Inc., which houses the Montana Indian Athletic Hall of Fame. Donnie and his colleagues are working to promote the virtues of warrior culture through sport. In part two of this two-part episode, Donnie discusses his work on the forthcoming documentary film “The Undefeated,” which aims to shift the narrative around Indigenous people from one of trauma to one of resilience and generational strength. Donnie also touches on how he maintains hope and resiliency himself, and how he uses his past and his culture to stay grounded.
