Individuals and communities make their realities by molding the world and its materials with their hands, bodies, and words. In this bundle of films, we foreground the ways communities engage one another through making drums, cloth, books, and tipi, and how in doing so, they challenge both outsiders and themselves to see the world differently.


Individuos y comunidades construyen sus realidades moldeando el mundo y sus materiales con sus manos, cuerpos, y palabras. En esta colección de películas, exploramos cómo las comunidades se relacionan entre sí, haciendo tambores, tela, libros y tipi, y cómo a través del hacer, desafían a los afuerinos y a si mismos a ver el mundo de una manera diferente.

“Long before others defined our beauty, our ancestors carried markings of pride.” This documentary short, filmed on the traditional territories of the Lower Tanana Dene Peoples and produced for Smithsonian Channel, shares the beauty of those markings. Their reclaiming is sacred and specific to Indigenous communities and is not to be appropriated.
