A pair of Canadian models started their own modeling agency with the motto, “representation matters.”

Supernaturals Modelling has a roster of Native talent and an insider’s perspective of the benefits and drawbacks of the often glamorous and equally often problematic industry. The agency’s co-creator, Joleen Mitton (Cree), says Indigenous models are sometimes subject to racist and insensitive environments.

Native America Calling will hear from Indigenous models working to improve the culture of professional modeling.
