NTT TJ Reed

Venture and Dr. Thomas Reed discussed their personal experiences, shared interests in sports, and the importance of preserving cultural practices. They also explored the different versions of lacrosse and the various positions in the game, with Dr. Reed suggesting that Venture would make a good defensive midfielder. The conversation concluded with an agreement on the need to document and share cultural stories authentically, while the knowledgeable elders are still around. The conversation also touched on the progress made in respecting and revering Native American communities, the importance of education and public service, and the passion for teaching and personal growth.@thomasjamesreed
