Sugarcane film screening

St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church invites you to a FREE screening of the film Sugarcane on Sunday, January 25, at 12:00 PM. This award-winning debut feature documentary from Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie, is a groundbreaking investigation into an Indian residential school, shedding light on years of forced separation, assimilation and abuse that Indigenous children experienced at the hands of Church and government. This urgent and timely film brings the hidden story of cultural genocide to audiences worldwide while celebrating the resilience of Native people as they work to overcome cycles of intergenerational trauma. Screening will be followed by a facilitated discussion. Film runs 1h 47m. Bring a bag lunch.  Click here to register to attend (you need not present a ticket to enter the screening).  This film is recommended for ages 16+ only.  Childcare for younger children is available by reservation.  Contact the church office no later than Monday, Jan. 19 if you would like to use the childcare.
