In conjunction with Indigenous Peoples’ Day, the museum is participating in a virtual screening of the film Gather: the Fight to Revitalize Our Native Foodways.
“Gather 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.
[The film] 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.”RSVP to the screening to receive an email with the film link by clicking the button in the sidebar.
This film will not be shown at the museum. This is a virtual event.
