Native Healing Celebrated.......2006-11-05

After centuries of colonialist suppression, more Americans are beginning to realize that Native health practices may be effective. This documentary never says one method is better than another; it celebrates having choices.

The documentary interviews Natives and whites, women and men. Still, most of the Native healers shown were female and I wonder if that is a part of tribal tradition, a bit like how midwifery was traditionally done by women in Euro-America. This film celebrates the ways of Asians, Africans, and the indigenous people of Latin America, thus it promote person-of-color unity. One man spoke in front of a herd of docile buffalo. If I were part of a species that was almost wiped out by humans, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near them. Why did they have to be hunted if they are as passive as they are in this work?

This documentary was a bit short. It would be great for New Age advocates or science classes with mostly Native students to see.
