New Documentary Highlights Tribal Disenrollment Issues
In a revealing turn of events, Ryan Flynn’s documentary, initially pulled from the 2025 Palm Springs Film Festival due to ‘scheduling errors,’ is set to premiere. Titled ‘You’re No Indian’, the film takes an in-depth look at the divisive issue of tribal disenrollment – a practice that sees Indigenous people stripped from tribal memberships. After a six-month delay, it will finally be showcased at the Dances With Films Festival on June 28, bringing to light a human rights crisis that has long plagued Native American communities.
