[Classifieds] “Gather” Documentary screening Nov 23 3pm Woods Hole Public Library

[MBL Classifieds]

The Woods Hole Public Library and the Woods Hole Diversity Advisory Committee are marking National Native American Heritage Month with a free screening of the documentary Gather on Saturday, November 23, at 3:00 pm. Gather is an intimate portrait of the growing movement amongst Native Americans to reclaim their spiritual, political and cultural identities through food sovereignty, while battling the trauma of centuries of genocide. The film features the stories of an indigenous chef as he embarks on a ambitious project to reclaim ancient food ways on the Apache reservation; in South Dakota a gifted Lakota high school student, raised on a buffalo ranch, is proving her tribes native wisdom through her passion for science; and a group of young men of the Yurok tribe in Northern California are struggling to keep their culture alive and rehabilitate the habitat of their sacred salmon. All these stories combine to show how the reclaiming and recovery of ancient food ways is a way forward for native Americans to bring back health and vitality to their people. Gather was released in 2020, was named a New York Times Critics’ Pick that same year, and was awarded a James Beard Foundation Media Award for Best Documentary in 2022.

This screening will take place in the Woods Hole Public Library’s accessible lower level Community Room on Saturday, November 23 at 3:00 pm and all are welcome to attend.
