Film Screening of "Canes of Power"

Join us for a film screening of Canes of Power, a Silver Bullet Production, in the Kathryn O’Keeffe Theater.

CANES OF POWER, narrated by Cherokee Actor Wes Studi is the story of President Abraham Lincoln’s gift of engraved wood canes to each of New Mexico’s 19 Pueblo nations. The canes symbolized the recognition of tribal sovereignty at the very same time 13 Southern states were seeking their own sovereignty from the United States.
