For this year’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day Lecture, we have the pleasure of hosting Pawnee artists Lil Mike and Funny Bone who will speak to us about how their art has allowed them to “put a positive spin on the rap game” and to claim and reclaim Native presences within North American popular culture. They will spotlight different stages of their careers and will share with us how their hip hop practice has prepared them for their acting careers. They will also relate to us the challenges of becoming and being successful Native artists and performers as well as what role religion has played for their lives and practices.
