SUMMARY:nîpawistamâsowin: We Will Stand Up
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES annual programming\, the Toront
 o Public Library - Lillian H. Smith Branch is offering free screening of t
 he following film:\n\nnîpawistamâsowin: We Will Stand Up (Tasha Hubbard 
 | 2019 | 1 h 38 min)\n\nOn August 9\, 2016\, a young Cree man named Colt
 en Boushie died from a gunshot to the back of his head after entering Gera
 ld Stanley’s rural property with his friends. The jury’s subsequent ac
 quittal of Stanley captured international attention\, raising questions ab
 out racism embedded within Canada’s legal system and propelling Colten
 ’s family to national and international stages in their pursuit of justi
 ce. Sensitively directed by Tasha Hubbard\, nîpawistamâsowin: We Will S
 tand Up weaves a profound narrative encompassing the filmmaker’s own ado
 ption\, the stark history of colonialism on the Prairies\, and a vision of
  a future where Indigenous children can live safely on their homelands.\n\
 n---\n\nFREE SCREENING\nFor more information on this screening\, please co
