Rebecca Nagle “we are still here, fighting indigenous erasure in the media”

Rebecca Nagle is an award winning journalist and citizen of Cherokee

Nation. She is the writer and host of the podcast This Land. Her writing

on Native representation, federal Indian law, and tribal sovereignty has

been featured in the Atlantic, the Washington Post, The Guardian, USA

Today, Indian Country Today, and more. Rebecca Nagle is the recipient

of the American Mosaic Journalism Prize, Women’s Media Center’s

Exceptional Journalism Award, a Peabody Nominee, and numerous

awards from the Native American Journalist Association.

Indigenous communities deserve the same standard of journalism as the

rest of the country, but rarely receive it from non-Native media outlets.

Nagle‘s journalism seeks to correct this. From the census, to COVID, to

the Supreme Court, Nagle focuses on deeply and timely reporting that

sheds light on issues of National importance.

Nagle lives in Tahlequah, OK, where she also works on language

revitalization.
