About this item

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION A provocative multi-media project that establishes Native history as an essential part of American history. The centerpiece of this initiative is a television series that tells five heartbreaking, yet inspiring stories. Together they highlight Native ingenuity and resilience over the course of 300 years. The series upends two-dimensional stereotypes of American Indians as simply ferocious warriors or peaceable lovers of the land. REVIEW "Viewers will be amazed." "If youre keeping score, this program ranks among the best TV documentaries ever made." and "Reminds us that true glory lies in the honest histories of people, not the manipulated histories of governments. This is the stuff they kept from us." --Clif Garboden, The Boston Phoenix "Gripping." "Scores big by keeping its scope mostly personal, picking out captivating personalities and relationships to portray." "There were not only epidemics and massacres, but also enough political intrigue to make Matt Drudges head spin." and "PBSs cinematography is about as lush as anything youll see." --Allison Williams, Time Out New York "Romanticized or marginalized...according to the creators of We Shall Remain, those are the two main ways in which Native American history has been over-simplified. Thus, there is a clear purpose to the five-part documentary/docu-drama project." --Bill Harris, Toronto Sun
