SUMMARY:"We Walk the Earth" film screening at Canadian Association for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CALAC) Congress
DESCRIPTION:\nYork University's Faculty of Health is delighted to share that the documentary film "We Walk the Earth," has been selected for screening at this year's Canadian Association for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CALACS) ( https://www.yorku.ca/research/calacs/events/calacs-annual-conference/ ) Congress hosted at York University.  \n\n\n\nThis film was co-produced through the Grounded Project ( https://lasnubes.euc.yorku.ca/grounded-project/ ) led by Dr. Mathieu Poirier and Julie Hard in partnership with Dr. Felipe Montoya and Ana Maria Martinez at the Las Nubes EcoCampus.\n\n\n\nThe screening will be presented as a joint initiative between FEUC and the International Development Studies Program in LAPS, highlighting Indigenous health and land reclamation struggles in Latin America. \n\n\n\nDr. Miguel Gonzalez Perez and Dr. Ravi de Costa will also be screening the film "Patrol".\n\n\n\nThese films provide vital documentation of Indigenous struggles across Costa Rica. "We Walk the Earth" recounts the Bribri, Cabécar, Brunka and Bröran peoples' fight for land rights, self-governance, and autonomy, revealing how Indigenous stewardship offers alternative perspectives on our relationship with Earth. "Patrol" takes a more somber approach, examining the violent confrontations and devastating impact faced by unprotected Indigenous communities along the Nicaraguan border as they stand on the frontlines against environmental destruction.\n\n\n\nThe event will take place on May 16th at the Nat Taylor Cinema (Ross Building - North, Campus Walk N102).\n\n\n\nEvent Schedule:\n\n\n\n\n"We Walk the Earth ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evbEkCv2x9g )" – 3:00pm to 5:00pm\n\n\n\n"Patrol ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKB0-bh4VTc )" – 5:00pm to 7:00pm\n\n\n\n\nEach screening will be followed by a panel discussion facilitated by Julie Hard exploring critical issues facing Indigenous peoples as environmental protectors. \n\n\n\nWe are honored to welcome Gilbert Gonzales, one of the film directors and Indigenous leaders from Costa Rica, who will be joining our panel.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
