Celebrating Native American Heritage Month

November is Native American Heritage Month, or as it is commonly referred to, American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month. The month is a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native people.

The PRISM Multicultural Center will be presenting the film “Black Indians: An American Story” brings to light a forgotten part of America’s past-the cultural and racial fusion of Native and African Americans.  Narrated by James Earl Jones, produced and directed by the award winning Native American Production Company (Rich-Heape Films) this presentation explores what brought the two groups together, what drove them apart and the challenges that they face together today. Family memories and historical highlights reveal the indelible mark of this unique ancestry, and its continuing influence throughout the generations.

The film will be presented on the following dates and times in the PRISM Multicultural Center, Building 1 Room 108

Wednesday        November 17, 2021           12:00  p.m.

Tuesday             November 23, 2021             3:30   p.m.

This event is sponsored by the PRISM Multicultural Center and supported by the Programming Educators for Action, Collaboration & Equity Committee (PEACE)
