Join us virtually on Wednesday, March 15th, 2023 from 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm (PST), for “You Are On Indian Land: Crossing the Borders of Truth, Reconciliation and Redress” This virtual event is presented by the Indigenous Speakers Series.
In this session of the Indigenous Speaker Series, we will learn about the work and leadership of Grand Chief Mike Kanentakeron Mitchell who directed numerous First Nations films. You Are On Indian Land is one of his documentaries produced in 1969. It underlines many of the outstanding issues we see today in our First Nations communities. The film is powerful and unapologetic in showing the white man’s indifference against Indians. It represents the long-standing tension between those who are from here and those who have arrived here as colonial and new settlers. In this session we will learn more about how we think about the broader reach of truth, reconciliation and redress.
