the 1920s osage oil boom, showing osage people like i'd seen in photographs when i was younger, cos myut this period. not necessarily the reign of terror because we didn't have that language, but of osage oil wealth. ijust remember the first time i saw the film, seeing the slide show of all of these images come to life, just how incredible it was to see that world that was stripped so quickly. i felt the same way watching kundun. i was young enough to start grasping the free tibet movement and just so grateful to get to have that feeling of experiencing a place that is so sacred and is no longer accessible by the people who belong there. tibet will call on the west for help and hope that these countries will recognise our independence. it was done in a way that i think only a film—maker as dedicated, as tenacious, as humanist as scorsese. there was absolutely concern, but once i got there and felt, you know, the collaboration that i was invited into, with the osage community. a lot of times native actors, when we step into these roles, it's assumed that we just have all the answers inh

he needed to supply a medal, he said to the second chief of the little osage's, who is the squeaky wheel in this story, whom he viewed as well by the little osage's, and thus important spain's connection with them and to whom he had promised a medal. and so here we see native leaders using their access to spanish peace medals in their own jockeying for power. let's see, see. so we're going to sort of return to the mississippi here. and as we're going to think about some of the ways a native groups were able to manipulate the desire of the brits and the spanish for sort of permanent alliance with them while representatives saw exclusive alliances with native groups, indian peoples did not understand alliances in the same way as europeans. they considered them as not necessarily exclusive. this reality in native concepts of alliances necessitated ongoing on the part of imperial allies in the forms of gifts, for example, and also produced anxiety frustration in the years of partition for imperial representatives in the mississippi valley. such as britain's john thomas, then deputy superinte

legacy pollution and abandoned oil and gas infrastructure that pollutes the air and water for the osageation in oklahoma. and providing clean drinking water for fort peck in montana. i could go on. this is a once-in-a-generation funding that is empowering tribes and making up for a significant and systematic, underfunding of the tribal communities. of course, we know that they need in our communities is still incredibly high. we know that many priorities still need adequate funding and resources. that's what decades of lack of investments look like. but what we have done will have lasting and enduring results for the generations that have counted on us to shut up. it means that our kids and grandkids have a better shot at living lives where their needs are met, where their futures are bright, and where the pains and ills of the past no longer dictate they can become. that progress is unless, and it is thanks to president biden for making this administration and our cabinet form and unwavering partners in indian country. our cabinet has not always been unified in every decision. we are p

but the film had built such a strong safety net of osage voices in every department around the wholen, so i neverfelt like i had to be alone or speak out of turn. untranslated. that's how you are. i don't know what you said, but it must have been indian for handsome devil. she laughs. so what were the most memorable movie moments of 2024 for my talking movies colleagues in london? one of my biggest movie highlights of 2024 was getting to be in france when paris hosted the olympics and paralympics. it's a country that i've loved ever since i first went to the cannes film festival a few years ago. paris has to be one of the most cinematic places on the planet, and if there's one movie that feels like a valentine to the french capital, it's got to be amelie, which was rereleased in french cinemas to celebrate the games. amelie, played by audrey tautou, is a young woman, she works as a waitress in montmartre. she lives this vivid interior life. but because of her shyness, she's unable to tackle the big things in her own life, and one of those is a crush that she's got on a young man who

in the 1820s, lafayette stepped in to help a group of osage indians who had traveled to france. 1827,where they were initially treated as celebrities and were even presented to king charles, the 10th. after they arrived. no no fewer than four pamphlets were published about them, and they were were wildly popular and people people were eager to see them and meet them. and that went on for a while. here is an illustration from one of those pamphlets. this particular pamphlet was entitled six red indian. however, interest in them and support it in the support their sponsors began to wane over time and unfortunately the soldiers were left and wandering. in 1829, the six soldiers split into. groups three, three, two groups of three, with one group going to mont upon france where they were aided by the people there to return home. this, i think, is is the first group here and these are just fantastic images by by louis leopold barley. there were two women and four men see the second group that's just. here is second group. and this group ended up in paris and and again destitute. let me sho
