Nathan Apodaca skateboarded his way into the spotlight in a viral TikTok video. Now, he's taking his fame to the next level – in FX's Native-centered series 'Reservation Dogs.'
"Check me out in my acting debut," Apodaca said in the post."Thanks to the team an cast for making this an experience like no other." with Native-led and focused news site Indian Country Today, Apodaca said that his mother is Northern Arapaho and grew up on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. Apodaca grew up in Idaho but said he would visit the reservation, which is also home to the Eastern Shoshone tribal nation.
He carries his Native ancestry with him, proudly displaying it with a tattoo of two feathers on the back of his head. Part of the tattoo is designed with the Northern Arapaho flag. He told Indian Country Today he wants to add to get an additional tattoo on the other side of head to represent his father's Mexican ancestry.
"To the Indigenous people, get out there and make videos, go do what you want because I've been seeing a lot of Natives on TikTok just blowing up," he told the outlet."Follow your fellow Natives, follow each other. Be one with each other. One nation, we rise."
