3 - 5 p.m. PST
Presented by Stan State’s Ethnic Studies Department, Indigenous Students in Activism, the Council for Sustainable Futures, and the Eco Warriors. The Condor and the Eagle is an ancient prophecy, shared by many Indigenous people throughout the Americas. It says that when the Eagle of North America and the Condor of South America unite; the spirit of peace will awaken on Earth. Indigenous knowledge keepers will come together with world leaders to define a path of healing for all humans and the planet – Mother Earth.
In the documentary, four Indigenous leaders embark on an extraordinary trans-continental adventure from the Canadian Boreal forests to deep into the heart of the Amazonian jungle to unite the peoples of North and South America and deepen the meaning of “Climate Justice.” The Condor & The Eagle documentary offers a glimpse into a developing spiritual renaissance as the film's four protagonists learn from each other’s long legacy of resistance to colonialism and its extractive economy. Their path through the jungle takes them on an unexpectedly challenging and liberating journey, which will forever change their attachment to the Earth and one another.
