This Fall, Screen More Than A Word for Native American Heritage Month

SIGN UP TO HOST A SCREENING

The movement against Native American sports mascots has continued to make headline news over this past year, inspiring a long-overdue reckoning with one of the last socially acceptable forms of racial stereotyping.

Looking toward November, if you’re searching for programming to support Native American Heritage Month, consider setting up a campus screening of the powerful documentary film More Than a Word, which looks at this contentious issue from a Native American perspective.

More Than a Word is a useful tool for opening up dialogue between students, faculty, staff, and the wider community about the personal and social costs of America’s long history of misappropriating indigenous identity and imagery for purposes of entertainment.

We’d like your help in making sure More Than a Word is seen on as many college campuses as possible during Native American Heritage Month — and beyond! We hope you’ll join with us and host a screening of your own.
