A free screening of Oyate, a 2022 American documentary film directed by Brandon Jackson and Emil Benjamin. The film follows Indigenous activists and politicians as they shed light on the Dakota Access Pipeline protests. Following key figureheads of the #NODAPL (No Dakota Access Pipeline) movement, Oyate weaves together the story of colonization and the battle for decolonization that continues after the news cameras have stopped rolling.

This film is appropriate for adults and older teens. For more information about this documentary, visit www.oyatefilm.com.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Livermore Public Library as part of Livermore Reads Together, a community-wide reading program featuring Tommy Orange’s There There. Check out a copy of There There from Livermore Public Library. For additional program information, call 925-373-5500.
