Bright Lights:Inhabitants: An Indigenous Perspective
Directed by Costa Boutsikaris and Anna Palmer
Free Event
Co-presented with the Roxbury International Film Festival and the Living on Earth Podcast
Inhabitants follows five Native American Tribes across deserts, coastlines, forests, and prairies as they restore their traditional land management practices. For millennia Native Americans successfully stewarded and shaped their landscapes, but centuries of colonization have disrupted their ability to maintain traditional land management practices. From deserts, coastlines, forests, mountains, and prairies, Native communities are restoring their ancient relationships with the land. As the climate crisis escalates these time-tested practices of North America’s original inhabitants are becoming increasingly essential in a rapidly changing world.
