Hi All,
Passing this along. Please share with folks.
---------
You are invited to an event on cultural rights of indigenous peoples in 
New England. The centerpiece of this event will be a public screening of 
the documentary film “Mashpee Nine” in Woods Hole, MA. In the summer of 
1976, a peaceful gathering of Mashpee Wampanoag people was raided by law 
enforcement, and nine of the young people present were brutally 
arrested. The film documents the history of this event and its 
repercussions as the community drew close together to support those 
arrested. This story highlights the way in which inequalities in the 
criminal justice system work with the larger systems of colonialism, 
gentrification, and marginalization.

After the screening, there will be a panel discussion. Panelists include 
Paula Peters (Mashpee Nine filmmaker) and Dr. Betsy Sweet (Temple 
University), who will discuss current issues that indigenous peoples 
face in New England and ways to confront these inequalities.

*The screening and discussion will be held on March 9, 2019 from 2-4 pm 
in the Redfield Auditorium at 45 Water Street, Woods Hole.*

This event is sponsored by the MIT/WHOI Joint Program Student 
Representatives, the MIT School of Science Quality of Life Grant, and 
the Society for Women in Marine Science.
