Cheyenne/Arapaho accounts of Genocide to Air in Philadelphia
"The Sand Creek Massacre", as told from the Cheyenne/Arapaho perspective, documentary film will air in Philadelphia in May and June.
CENTENNIAL, CO (FPRC) March 21, 2007 (FPRC) -- "The Sand Creek Massacre", a documentary film by award-winning writer/filmmaker Donald L. Vasicek, is going to air on DUTV in Philadelphia the weeks of May 1, May 29 and June 26 on Tuesdays at 9:45 p.m., Fridays at 10:45 p.m. and repeating over the weekends at 5:45 p.m. and 12:45 a.m. The film, driven by Cheyenne/Arapaho oral histories, focuses on genocidal intent and how the Cheyenne/Arapaho people continue to overcome it, nearly 143 years after the Sand Creek Massacre.
"The film is a lesson for all," says Vasicek. "A sage people who transcend hate via non-violence shows how ignorance can be changed to wisdom, and subsequent solutions to problems we face in our world today. President Bush, Vice President Richard Cheney, Karl Rove, Henry Kissinger, Condalleza Rice and a volume of the Bush Administration must view this film if they are to displace ignorance with wisdom to stop the bleeding in Iraq and Afghanistan. It will be the most intellectual activity regarding terrorism they have participated in since 9/11."
A clip can be viewed and the film can be ordered for $24.95 plus $4.95 for shipping and handling at http://www.fullduck.com/node/53. Accompanying lesson plans/curriculum are also available.
