<font face="Times New Roman, Times">Our first event kicks off on <b>Nov.
3<sup>rd</sup></b> 6:30-8:30pm in HUB 302 North with a film screening of
<u>Wounded Knee</u>, Episode 5 of the <i>We Shall Remain</i> Film Series.
This documentary tells the gripping story of the 1973 siege of Wounded
Knee, examining the broad political and economic forces that led to the
emergence of the American Indian Movement (AIM) in the 1960s. For 71
days, activists engaged in a standoff with the U.S. government, bringing
the nation’s attention to the desperate conditions on Indian
reservations. Perhaps even more, important, the siege united Native
people across tribes creating a new path into the future.<br>

<b>Nov. 5<sup>th</sup></b> 12 noon- 2pm at the Costo Library

Birds: Following the Path of Cahuilla Power</u> by Sean Owens. This
documentary is on bird songs, which tell the origins of the Cahuilla
people, their travels in ancient times and their descriptions of the
natural environment. Following the screening, there will be a Discussion
Panel featuring Bird Singers: Gerald Clarke Jr., Anthony Madrigal, Bill
Madrigal, Luke Madrigal, William Madrigal Jr., and Leroy Miranda Jr.<br>
