The Office of Inclusive Excellence is celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day on Oct. 8 with a special screening of a new documentary that tells the stories of indigenous peoples who are standing against industries that threaten their physical, spiritual, economic and cultural lives.

The screening of “The Eagle and the Condor: From Standing Rock with Love,” directed by Paulette Moore, will take place from 7:30-9:30 p.m. in the Student Union Theater, North Campus.

The screening, which is being simulcast across the country, is hosted by UB’s Outdoor Pursuits, Outdoor Adventure Club and Native American Community Services (NACS) and its “All Our Relations” project.

Doors open at 7 p.m. At 7:30 p.m., attendees will hear a thanksgiving address and performance of the Redline Singers from Chicago, where the simulcast will originate. The film will be screened at 8 p.m., with discussion led by Moore from Chicago taking place from 9-9:30 p.m.

The film shares the stories of pediatrician Sara Juanita Jumping Eagle (Dakota/Lakota, Standing Rock); canupa (pipe) carrier Grandmother Theresa Black Owl (Singugu/Rosebud); economist, author and pipeline activist Winona LaDuke (Ojibwe); journalist Jenni Monet (Laguna Pueblo); Will Parrish, a reporter for the self-described “adversarial” online publication The Intercept; Wisconsin alderperson Rebecca Kemble; and others.

Filming took place during the historic unification of indigenous nations held in 2016-17 at Standing Rock reservation in North and South Dakota, during which the Lakota people renewed their Seven Council Fires alliance, and ambassadors of the Central and South American nations, represented by the condor, met with their North American counterparts, symbolized by the eagle.
