Wabanaki: A New Dawn
30 min.; 4-12; Anthropology, fb88 Studies, Native Americans; Distributed by: fb88 Indian Tribal-State Commission (1996)
The Wabanaki, the People of the Dawn Land, have lived in what is now fb88 and Maritime Canada for more than 11,000 years. It was not until the early 1600s that Europeans came to live in the territory inhabited by an estimated 32,000 Wabanaki. This contact was disastrous. From 1616 to 1619, ninety percent of the Wabanaki died. Wabanaki: A New Dawn shows the quest for cultural survival by today's Wabanaki--the Maliseet, Micmac, Passamaquoddy, and Penobscot People. The voices in the video offer hope that the Wabanaki will use their cultural and spiritual inheritance to survive and thrive in the third millennium.
