What Happened to The Revenant Tribe?

2016 will see the acclaimed film The Revenant hoping to collect a plethora of film awards (and might perhaps finally get Leonardo DiCaprio his coveted Oscar). The story, which follows famed fur trapper Hugo Glass in the wilds of North America, is a classic survival tale, which also takes a look at the indigenous groups invested in areas like the Louisiana Purchase territory in the nineteenth century.

The indigenous tribe which Glass comes into contact with is the Arikara tribe, they were a used and exploited group in the film. Like most Native Tribes in America after colonisation they disappeared into the background on reservations and struggled to find a way of life. The laws of US did afford them some advantage and independence however.

Tribes today, the Arikara being one of them, now operate gambling operations to take advantage of their unique standing in certain states and tax breaks. Unibet have done a study and infographic to take a look at Native Americans standing in America today and their burgeoning economy in the world of casinos.
