Summary

In this week’s episode, I hop on a call with Triana Browne! Triana competes in pageant circuits, and was crowned Miss Oklahoma 2017, Miss America 2018, and Miss USA runner up. She is also a college graduate with a degree in Human Development and Family Sciences, and a Division 1 athlete. Seriously, what can’t this girl do!

I chat with Triana about being multiracial and embracing her race despite adversity in society, school, and the pageant industry. Triana is half African American and half Native American, and works hard to give Native Americans recognition. She speaks up for Native rights and gives her people the support they deserve.
