Film: Standing on Sacred Ground – Pilgrims and Tourists
Directed by Christopher McLeod
In the Russian Republic of Altai, traditional native people create their own mountain parks, to rein in tourism and resist a gas pipeline that would cut through a World heritage Site.  In northern California, Winnemem Wintu girls grind herbs on a sacred medicine rock as elders protest U.S. government plans to enlarge one of the West’s biggest dams and forever submerge this touchstone of a tribe.
Winona LaDuke (Anishinaabe), Oren Lyons (Onondago), Satish Kumar and Barry Lopez provide insights on a growing global indigenous movement for human rights and environmental protections.
