In honor of Native American Heritage Month, Dr. Kristin Dowell with the FSU Art History Department will screen the film Kanehsatake: 270 Years of Resistance by world-renowned filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin. This groundbreaking film documents the 1990 fight for Indigenous land in Canada, capturing in harrowing detail the 78-day stand-off for Kanien’kehá:ka lands in Oka, Quebec.

Following the screening, there will be a Q&A with Dr. Andrew Frank, Director of the Native American and Indigenous Studies Center, and Grace Aneiza Ali, Curator and Assistant Professor.
