About
7:00–8:15 pm
Suitable for TV-PG audiences.
Join us at the Albany Pine Bush Discovery Center for an evening film screening of Firelighters: Fire is Medicine (season 8, episode 16 of Local USA).
“For centuries, most landscapes in North America were shaped by fire between lightning strikes and Indigenous burns. Indigenous people had deep knowledge of the art of using fire, and still do today. FIRELIGHTERS follows the work of women leaders from the Yurok and Karuk Tribes who are building resources to share Indigenous practices and create policies to take back Indigenous burning rights.”
This film screening is made possible through a collaboration with WMHT Public Media, our local PBS station.
