The Land is the Culture: A Case for BC Indian Land Claims

The Land is the Culture: A Case for BC Indian Land Claims

30 minutes 1970 HD

  • Share

"A documentary film which looks at the issue of British Columbia Native land claims and how the aboriginals link their culture to the land, which has been stolen by the dominant white culture of North America. In the film, the argument is presented that the lands have been taken from the Natives without any clear treaty agreements and how attempts had been made to wipe out Native culture through the Residential School system. " Produced by the Union of BC Indian Chiefs in 1975.
