"Uncovering the Ongoing Legacy of 'Killers of the Flower Moon' for Native Americans"
The partnership between Newsweek and the Osage News aims to shed light on the ongoing crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People in the United States, as highlighted by the film "Killers of the Flower Moon." Despite the film's Oscar buzz and potential historic win for Lily Gladstone, the real stakes lie in addressing the systemic failures and ongoing murders and disappearances among Native people. Law enforcement's lack of action, underreporting, and distrust in justice systems have perpetuated the crisis, prompting calls for community-based solutions and advocacy to address the generational trauma and ongoing racism faced by Indigenous communities.
