Description

Join us for a showing of the new documentary, "Warrior Lawyers" with a discussion of the film with filmmaker Audrey Geyer. This is an in-person program at the Holland Museum. Masks are required. Join us at the Holland Museum for Warrior Lawyers: Defenders of Sacred Justice, a one-hour PBS documentary that is particularly timely and relevant given our country's current reckoning with racial inequity and systemic racism. The film focuses on the stories of Michigan Native American Lawyers, Tribal Judges, and their colleagues who work with Native Nations, their citizens, and mainstream institutions to achieve Sacred Justice. These unseen role models strive daily to address and resolve unique and complicated historical, governmental, legal, judicial, and social welfare issues, which are most often rooted in discrimination, historical trauma, and cultural destruction. Come take a journey into past and present-day Indian Country to learn of untold stories that shine a light on Native Americans rising up to create a new path for today and for the next Seven Generations. A Q&A with the filmmaker, Audrey Geyer will follow the showing.
