Abstract

The author reflects on how Sterlin Harjo's series "The Lowdown" challenges dominant television narratives about Indigenous American land and history, positioning it as a critique of Taylor Sheridan's treatment of similar themes. Topics include the show's portrayal of land ownership and Native American perspectives, its rejection of the white saviour trope and emphasis on community over possession, and its contrast with Sheridan's depiction of American history, power, and Indigenous identity.
