The 2024 Emmy nominations have shattered records with unprecedented Indigenous representation, celebrating groundbreaking shows like ‘Reservation Dogs’ and the exceptional talents of Native actors. This year, the Television Academy’s nods include history-making nominations for Indigenous performers and stories, highlighting the long-overdue recognition of voices from Indigenous communities.
Among the standout nods is ‘Reservation Dogs,’ the FX on Hulu comedy-drama that captivated audiences with its portrayal of four teenagers navigating life on an Oklahoma reservation. The series, notable for its all-Indigenous creative team and cast, secured multiple nominations including Outstanding Comedy Series and a well-deserved nod for D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai as Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
Also making history are Lily Gladstone and Kali Reis, recognized respectively for their roles in Hulu’s ‘Under the Bridge’ and HBO’s ‘True Detective: Night Country.’ Both actresses are the first-ever Indigenous nominees in their respective categories, marking a significant step forward in representation at the Emmys.
