An Evening of Indigenous Storytelling: A Film Screening and Dialogue with Damian Abrahams
Join us for a powerful evening of film and conversation as we present a double feature from acclaimed filmmaker Damian Abrahams. This event offers a unique opportunity for settlers to engage with stories that illuminate the everyday realities of Indigenous people navigating a world built on colonial systems. By bearing witness to these narratives, we can begin to understand the complex challenges that exist just beneath the surface of the world many of us move through with ease.
This event is not just a film screening; it’s a call to action. Following the films, there will be an intimate dialogue with director Damian Abrahams and a short panel discussion. He will share his insights into the filmmaking process and engage in a conversation designed to help a non-Indigenous audience recognize the invisible barriers that exist for so many. Barriers that do not exist for non-Indigenous folks. This is a chance to listen, learn, and grow as allies, fostering a deeper understanding of the collective responsibility we all share in creating a more just and inclusive society.
