The forced assimilation and attempted eradication of Native people through compulsory “residential schools” with a policy of “kill the Indian\, save the man” resulted in the loss of life\, the loss of a generation of relatives\, language speakers\, and culture bearers. \nIn 2007\, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada was established because of the largest class-action settlement in Canadian history\, the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. Here in the United States\, U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced the Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative. The Department of the Interior will identify boarding school sites\, locations of known and possible student burial sites located at or near school facilities and identify the children and their tribal affiliations to bring them home. Recently\, 1\,500+ mass unmarked graves have been found at Residential schools across Canada. \nIn the United States\, the Rosebud Sioux Youth Council worked for six years to bring home 9 of their relatives from Carlisle Indian School. After more than 140 years away\, they were welcomed home in July of this year. The work to bring the relatives home has just started\, we celebrate and honor those who have not made it home yet. \nGuest Speaker: Lauren van Schilfgaarde (Cochiti Pueblo) – San Manuel Band of Mission Indians Tribal Legal Development Clinic Director at UCLA School of Law. \nFor more information about this program\, please contact: info@gichigamiin-museum.org | (847) 475-1030 | www.mitchellmuseum.org/ipd2021 \n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n Join us for a screening of the film SHANK\, written\, produced\, and directed by filmmaker Jim Terry\, with music by Peckinslaw. Described as “If Monty Python made John Wick with no money”\, SHANK is a bonkers action comedy you can’t miss. After the conclusion of the film\, there will be a brief discussion featuring artists from the film\, moderated by cast member Aaron Golding. The cast and creative team will reflect on the film’s themes and their experience bringing the piece to life. Light snacks and drinks will be available for purchase\, and all proceeds from this event will directly fund future Sweetest Season programming. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Get Tickets \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n More Info \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n Donate \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Jim Terry is a Ho-Chunk storyteller who’s called Chicago his home for the last ten thousand years or so. His graphic memoir “Come Home\, Indio” was nominated for an Ignatz and was a finalist for the LA Times Bookprize. His comic-book essay “Paper Cuts”\, done in residency at The Newberry Library\, is currently being taught in several schools and he has worked as a comics illustrator for almost two decades with everyone from Marvel to Heavy Metal. This August his prose will be published in the anticipated “Never Whistle At Night 2: Back For Blood” and he just completed the feature length film “Shank”.

For over ten years he traveled the powwow circuit full time competing as a men’s northern traditional dancer. He found a great deal of success as a dancer and eventually toured with the American Indian Dance Theater. After traveling the country he decided to settle down and begin a career in law enforcement. For over 16 years he has worked as a full time law enforcement officer working first in a municipal police department and later worked for the BIA. \nHe began tooling leather in 1993. Inspired by his uncle Darrel Brushbreaker Sr\, he began making and selling small leather items to vendors at powwows. Eventually people asked him to make powwow belts and he continued doing that from time to time. He never had any actual lessons or apprenticed with anyone. From time to time he received tips from his uncle which he used to improve his art. During his law enforcement career he continued leather work in a small capacity as stress relieving outlet. \nHe began teaching his wife Genevieve around 2015 and she quickly took to leather work with a great passion. In 2017 they started Two Guns Leather Co. together and in 2019 decided to open a shop in Tahlequah\, OK. His style of leather work is very unique among other leather artists. He does not do the traditional leather tooling familiar to most people. His designs and art reflect his proud native ancestry. Much like his people before him he expresses his art trough everyday functional items such as belts\, bags\, wallets and much more. He truly embraces the concept of functional art. He believes in creating beautiful works of art that people can use on a daily basis that will last for many years. https://twogunsleather.com/ \nThis is a free virtual discussion series open to our members\, friends\, and visitors. As we continue to work on developing more programs\, please consider donating to the museum. https://gichigamiin-museum.org/donate/ \nWe want to thank each one of our featured artists as well as our sponsor.
