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,
