Warrior Lawyers: Defenders of Sacred Justice

WARRIOR LAWYERS is a one-hour documentary about Native American role models, Nation Re-Building and Tribal Justice. Through the personal and professional stories of American Indian Attorneys, Tribal Judges and their colleagues, the program provides an overview of the major historical, governmental, legal, judicial and intertwining social justice issues shaping many Federally Recognized Nations today.

The little known and underreported issues examined in the documentary include: Tribal Sovereignty, Federal Recognition, Treaty Rights, Historical Trauma, Violence Against Indian Women, Indian Child Welfare as well as Restorative Justice practices such as Peacemaking and Healing to Wellness Drug Courts.

There will be a question and answer session after the film with filmmaker Audrey Geyer.
