SUMMARY:"Bring Them Home" Screening
DESCRIPTION:The American Indian Resource Center will be screening "Bring Them Home" at the Namaste Lounge this November 7th.\n"Bring Them Home" is more than a film; it is a movement aimed at raising awareness around the Blackfeet's buffalo program\, a cornerstone in their fight against the lingering shadows of colonization\, oppression\, and trauma. Through this campaign\, we aspire to amplify the tribe's rewilding efforts\, support the sustainability of their buffalo program\, and convey the critical message of living in harmony with animals and the land.\nThe narrative of the Blackfeet and bison is intertwined with themes of survival\, resilience\, and rebirth. These majestic creatures are integral to every face of the Blackfeet culture\, playing a vital role in ceremonies and symbolizing the community's cultural\, spiritual\, and economic healing. The recent release of the Elk Island Herd into the wild marks a significant step in this journey\, despite the numerous challenges encountered along the way.\n
