SUMMARY:John Ware Reclaimed
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES\, the Cochrane Public Library
   is offering a free screening of the following film\, for Black History 
 Month :\n\nJohn Ware Reclaimed (Cheryl Foggo | 2020 | 73 min)\n\nIs it
  possible to love someone who died before you were born? Cheryl Foggo beli
 eves so. John Ware Reclaimed follows filmmaker Foggo on her quest to unc
 over the complex story of John Ware\, a Black cowboy and rancher who settl
 ed in Alberta prior to the turn of the 20th century. As she endeavours to
  dig past the racist myths and mistellings surrounding Ware\, she recalls 
 her childhood in Calgary\, Alberta\, her own experiences of racism\, and h
 er family’s history as part of the 1910 migration to western Canada to e
 scape violence in the southern United States. She also evokes the suppress
 ed history of a thriving Black presence in the Prairies: the Black pioneer
 s who lived\, worked\, and raised families in the west. Foggo’s archival
 \, genealogical\, and archaeological search\, and her creative reimagining
  of John Ware’s life\, reveal who this iconic figure might have been\, a
 nd what his legacy means.\n\n---\n\nFor more info\, please contact the org
