The blog space for the Program of Aboriginal Studies (University of Ottawa) course EAS 3102, entitled "Sacred Relations: a Vision of Indigenous Peoples"
In conjunction with National Aboriginal Awareness Day, the University of Ottawa Indigenous Students Association (I.S.A) is excited to host one of the Thirteen Grandmothers Margaret Behan Red (Red Spider Woman) for a facilitated discussion and film screening of "For The Next Seven Generations."
Please join us as she shares her wisdom and vision to protect and restore our Mother Earth, and to bring this mending through the collective resolve in ourselves as people.
Synopsis: (taken from the website) In 2004, thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers from all four corners, moved by their concern for our planet, came together at a historic gathering, where they decided to form an alliance: The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers. This is their story. Four years in-the-making and shot on location in the Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North America, and at a private meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, For the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when these wise women unite. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for change now, before it's too late. This film documents their unparalleled journey and timely perspectives on a timeless wisdom. www.forthenext7generations.com
