Murder, justice and tribal politics in rural Wyoming. That’s the basic story summary of the television show, “Longmire.” It’s one of the very few TV shows that feature Native actors and storylines in nearly every episode. The new season is set to premiere on Netflix. Fans are excited to find out what happens to Henry Standing Bear (Lou Diamond Philips), who left us with a cliffhanger. In this program, we celebrate “Longmire” and we take a look at how Native and Native issues are covered in it.
