Overview
When armed deputies raid a small card room on the Cabazon Reservation, young Brenda Soulliere finds herself at the center of a fight that will redefine Native sovereignty. Led by Chairman Art Welmas and attorney Glenn Feldman, the tribe challenges California’s right to regulate gaming on Indian land. As the case ascends to the Supreme Court, generations of injustice collide with courage and conviction—sparking the modern Indian gaming era and proving that sovereignty is not granted, but exercised.
