Episode Synopsis
On this episode of LANDBACK FOR THE PEOPLE, Nick Tilsen invites filmmakers Julian Brave Noisecat (former NDN Collective Media Fellow) and Emily Kassie, directors of the award winning documentary SUGARCANE, to have the conversation on Indian boarding schools (known as residential schools in Canada) and its relationship with land back. Boarding schools and education were weaponized in order to assimilate Indigenous people into mainstream society. We're asking our allies and accomplices to share this episode with your families and communities because it's important to understand what has happened historically to our people. It is important to understand the trauma that still exists and how that has a direct correlation to the challenges that we face today. SUGARCANE is NOW STREAMING on DISNEY+ and HULU. ✊🏽 WANT TO LEARN MORE? ▶️ Visit the SUGARCANE website: https://sugarcanefilm.com ▶️ Follow the film on Instagram: @sugarcanefilm Support Indigenous-led narratives and organizing by donating to NDN Collective today at https://ndncollective.org/donate EPISODE CREDITS: Host: Nick Tilsen Producer: Willi White Co-Producer: Steph Viera Editor: Willi White Music: Mato Wayuhi Set Photography: Angel White Eyes
