Unbroken: Indigenous Peoples Today

Tommy Alanis, Diné (Navajo) Native

"Violence has been in my life ever since I was a kid. I was first arrested when I was 13 years old, then I went to jail again as an adult. Now I'm here with my people, and seeing these kids dancing and learning their heritage gives me peace. It gives me a place. It's where I belong."
