Lily Gladstone, the star of Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon," is gaining significant attention this awards season for her portrayal of Mollie Burkhart, an Osage woman whose family is targeted for their oil-rich land. Gladstone, who has a history of studying Native American actors in Hollywood, is using her newfound platform to amplify Native voices and issues. Despite her rise to fame and the potential for an Academy Award nomination, she remains grounded in her values and community, refusing to be boxed into Hollywood stereotypes. Her performance and presence are not only breaking barriers for Native American representation in film but also inspiring many as she navigates the intensity of the awards-season spotlight.
