Blood & Water: Film Screening & Panel Event

Join Water Allies for a film screening of Blood & Water, a story of reclamation. The film is a self-narrated documentary exposing new light on the modern day impact and generational trauma caused by residential schools. Layla Black is Mohawk, Turtle Clan from Six Nations on the Grand River. After the film, Layla Black & panelists will share their stories from Land Back and how through connecting with water they have been able to reclaim their culture.

Director Comments: This film shares some of the most important lessons I've learned on my road to reclaiming my Mohawk identity and a deeper look at how residential schools impacted me even though they had closed many years before I was born. I know that I am not alone, this is not just my story. This film goes out to everyone else that is walking the red road.
