The Canary Effect takes an in depth look at the devastating effect that US policies have had on the Indigenous people of America. Using beautifully crafted imagery it presents a chilling case to what many believe is an ongoing genocide of the American Indian. Featuring interviews with some of the leading scholars and exponents of Indigenous struggles, alongside revealing insight from those who work and live on reservations today, The Canary Effect creates a link between the past and present in a unique way never before explored on film (http://www.myspace.com/thecanaryeffect).
Film screening is co-sponsored by the following: California State University, Long Beach\'s American Indian Studies and Film and Electronic Arts Departments; Center for the First Amendment Studies; the City of Long Beach\'s Corporations for the Public Arts; KPFK (http://www.kpfk.org) FM 90.7 Los Angeles, FM 98.7 Santa Barbara and American Indian Airwaves.
