Gather is a new project currently in production that explores the state of Native American Food Sovereignty thru film, photography and print journalism.
Gather
Gather is a new film and journalism project on Native American Food Sovereignty.
It’s hard to fathom that the inaugural @bears.ears.prayer.run.alliance relay was held just one year back. And in one week, the second edition will be held. Rather than a 5 spiked run from various Native Nations, this year indigenous youth will congregate at a single point on Ute Territory and take daily runs to different parts of Bear’s Ears. Follow them on IG and if you haven’t seen last year’s film “Sacred Strides”, look for it on Vimeo. And to this year’s batch of runners, our ❤️ s are in yours. (Too many folks to tag here. You all know who you are).

Food sovereignty and land rights are inseparable. Please go to NativesOutdoors to learn about their new film and the fight for the rights of the Gwich’in People to prevent the opening of the Arctic Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling. Such devastation would irreparably harm the caribou herds on which they’ve relied for millennia. Much like what’s happening at Bears Ears, the Gwich’in are in a fight for their rights but also for the rights of all indigenous people to hunt, to fish, and to worship the Land they way they always have. Please follow Len Necefer and Greg Balkin. The film drops online March 18th but will also be touring the US thanks to Patagonia
One of our favorite songs by Raye Zaragoza (Akimel O’odham) is now out on Spotify and iTunes. From her new EP, Live at Rockwood Hall, the song WARRIOR, which will feature prominently in Gather.

We are beyond excited to announce that Gather will feature the music of indigenous singer+songwriter @rayezaragoza (Tohono O’odham). You might know her from the music she wrote at Standing Rock during the pipeline fight. Look for her music on YouTube and Spotify but get ready for some brand new tracks on her next album, coming out later in 2019.

Our director ‘s film 3100 RUN AND BECOME (3100film) is now available for rent and purchase on iTunes and Amazon and Google Play. And yes! There is a food sovereignty story embedded in this epic running film - the Kalahari Bushmen fighting for their rights to run and hunt! It’s a tale that needs urgently to be told and it found a home nestled in this adventure running film! Check it out. For runners we think watching the film is the equivalent of a long run 😂 For non- runners, it’s a great way to supercharge the beginning of the New Year with health and spirit! 3100film @wings_of_america @yazziemartin Survival International #runandbecome @haroldbennally
