Gratitude and Recognition Run & Documentary with Panel Discussion Honoring Indigenous Nations
I won't be joining the 5K run today (10am meet-up spot @overthrownewyork - 9 Bleecker Street in NYC) But later (7pm - 9pm EST) I'll be one of the zoom panelists for this event. I'm joining Ana Lakotajewel (@lakotajewel) and Chase Iron Eyes (@chaseironeyes). @gatherfilm will be screened. Tickets also found here.
@gatherfilm "is an intimate portrait of the growing movement amongst Native Americans to reclaim their spiritual, political and cultural identities through food sovereignty, while battling the trauma of centuries of genocide. Gather follows Nephi Craig, a chef from the White Mountain Apache Nation (Arizona), opening an indigenous café as a nutritional recovery clinic; Elsie Dubray, a young scientist from the Cheyenne River Sioux Nation (South Dakota), conducting landmark studies on bison; and the Ancestral Guard, a group of environmental activists from the Yurok Nation (Northern California), trying to save the Klamath river."
