Woodsie Pound didn’t have it easy. Youngest of four sisters, a Chickasaw living in the Great Depression, and driven to be the best guard in the nation, her biggest opponent was a world that fought against her and everything she was.\nBased on the true account of a small, but record\-setting Oklahoma women’s college team, 88 Straight, follows Woodsie from her instant passion for basketball through the confusions and anxieties of a young and dedicated life, family tensions and tragedies, and the discovery of her Chickasaw heritage.

In mid-autumn 2018 eight Chickasaw elders gathered in the council house on the grounds of Kullihoma, the Chickasaw Nation's cultural site in south central Oklahoma. There they shared old and new stories with an audience of children and adults. Those stories are presented in Shikonno'pa' Anoli' (Stories to Tell). The forty stories told that historic night reveal much of what we consider essential about our First American and Chickasaw cultures.
