Nicole McCormick

Journalist

“When I think back, I’ve worked in six or seven major television stations and one radio station throughout the start of my career. It’s not just one story it’s a culmination of a few, I remember I moved to the States for a while, I was in California in a newsroom and there were no Native Americans, they didn’t know what Indigenous meant...but they did know that I was something unique so they tokenized the hell out of me. ” Nicole McCormick
