In the coming decades, Indigenous communities will likely look much different than right now. In this special edition of the ICT Newscast, we highlight our series called Indigenous in 2024. Changemakers speak about their reflections, observations and hopes.

We begin with Diné weaver, designer and model Naiomi Glasses.

Jhane Myers is a Comanche and Blackfeet creative who won several awards for her role as a producer on the science fiction action movie “Prey.” She shares her passion for filmmaking and her influence on her talented children.

Tyler Glasses is a seventh generation weaver and photographer—and Naiomi’s brother. He reflects on his experiences growing up in a family of artists.
