Review of Native American Identity

There are some really important ideas explored in this piece, and some great interview tape. It's an acts and tracks piece that includes an interview with a mother and daughter about their mixed race identities. The insights of each woman, and the reporter, are thoughtful and engaging. But I think the piece needs some motion, some action, some energy. I think I would be more interested in the ideas if I got to know these women, just a little bit, beyond the interview setting. I would love to hear them interact with each other, or hear them in a scene within their communities, whatever that might be.
