Chaske Spencer

There was a point - when I was a kid - where I said I wanted to be like Luke Skywalker, with blond hair and blue eyes. My mom right there told me to never be ashamed of who I am.

I think people should look at learning about Native American history the same as visiting Washington, D.C., and seeing the monuments there. It's all part of the package.

I have my own production company called Urban Dreams.

I remember my dad, who coached football, would buy some of his players football shoes when they couldn't afford it.

It's just amazing to do something that's part of a pop culture phenomenon.
