Just as Indigenous Peoples’ Day has been marked as a day of recognition of the many contributions of Native peoples, November offers the opportunity for a month-long celebration of Native traditions, cultures, languages and stories.
This November on WORLD, two feature-length documentaries premiering on Local, USA explore how the people of the Lummi and Yurok tribes stay committed to their respective heritage and traditions today for future generations: Scha'nexw Elhtal'nexw Salmon People: Preserving a Way of Life (November 4) follows the innate ritual of salmon fishing for the Lummi, while in Firelighters: Fire Is Medicine (November 18), Yurok women bring cultural burning back to their land in California.
Also new this month is Reckoning and Repair from Stories from the Stage: Three storytellers, featuring one with Native roots, share how confronting a hurtful past borne from pivotal moments in American history – like the Indian Boarding School era – can open the door to healing and justice.
Explore how Native American heritage brings strength and connection to communities with these new films and streaming favorites.
