SUMMARY:Tides Converge Film Series presents: Funding Indigenous
DESCRIPTION:Come join the organization for a Tides Converge Film Series screening of Funding Indigenous\, a series of short documentaries produced by the Cultural Conservancy on March 5\, 2025 from 1-3pm. This event is free\, and light refreshments are provided. \nThese unique documentaries amplify and articulate the movement indigenizing philanthropy with Indigenous people. Personal and collective stories interweave with Indigenous knowledge in global reciprocity. \nThis project includes:\n• Four ~20-minute poetic Documentary Profiles profiling key Indigenous leaders in this movement\n• Eight long-form Oral Histories delving into Indigenous knowledge\, leaders’ life experiences\, pivotal relationships\, events and protocols \nThese videos are for Indigenous communities seeking greater economic and narrative sovereignty; philanthropists and policy-makers seeking greater equity; and for teachers and youth seeking Indigenous knowledge and wisdom. All videos — from Indonesia\, Kenya\, Nicaragua\, Mexico\, France and Turtle Island — were filmed in collaboration with local Indigenous communities and videographers\, who collaborated in the 2-year participatory production process of documentary production training and collective story crafting. \nThis project is a partnership between Tamalpais Trust\, The Cultural Conservancy\, Pawanka Fund\, Aliansi Masyarakat Adat Nusantara (Indonesia)\, Centro para la Autonomía y Desarollo de los Pueblos Indígenas (Nicaragua)\, and Kivulini Trust (Kenya).

DESCRIPTION:Join the museum for an exhilarating afternoon of staged readings featuring these groundbreaking new plays\, where talented playwrights will compete for the $500 Thomas Studie Gadugi Audience Prize and the $1000 Von Marie Atchley Excellence in Playwriting Award. \nFor far too long\, when most people thought of Native Americans\, they often conjured up outdated images of exotic figures from history\, adorned in leather and feathers\, trapped behind museum glass. Few see a beautifully vibrant culture that thrives today. \nFor their 15th Annual Short Play Festival\, they asked Native playwrights to boldly go where few have imagined Native people before: the future! What captivating tales have they woven? Witness a future filled with hope\, the delightfully absurd\, and the downright terrifying.

When using it\, you’re letting it be known you don’t agree with someone’s words or actions against you. It’s pretty open-ended\, and can be applied to so many instances: A government that wants to eradicate us\, an ex who doesn’t respect us\, etc. It’s relevant to the energy we are bringing to this event\, actively using our words/poetry to stand up for ourselves. In short; We aren’t gonna go down that easy.)
