Written out of history - Thirsty (for Knowledge) Thursday
Set aside 20 minutes for this one. It's longer but highlights a piece of history most of us never learned about: Native American slavery.
Written Out of History blends historical facts with accounts of the forgotten legacy of Native American slavery told by indigenous scholars and anthropologists.
A video by Max Carocci and Simona Piantieri
Full credits at the end of the video
Video length: 22:09
Written Out of History blends historical facts with accounts
of the forgotten legacy of Native American slavery told by
indigenous scholars and anthropologists.
Originally shot on location in North America, Europe, and
the Caribbean, this artistic documentary reconstructs for the first time on camera the events that led to the erasure of indigenous forced labour from the annals of history.
Given the extent of the subject, we are planning a WHO part two for which we are currently seeking funds.
