The first great Olympians for the United States were indigenous: decathlete Jim Thorpe and swimmer Duke Kahanamoku, and breakout stars of the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm. It’s worth noting as we consider the human potential of our Native American youth – and the barriers that many face today. How can we make sport and play accessible for the hardest to reach?
