SUMMARY:Metal Road Film Screening - Flagstaff
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, thousands of Navajos worked the railroads maintaining the trans-continental network. Metal Road enters the world of Navajo families amid the history of railroad work through the lens of one workday on the 9001 Heavy Steel Gang.The Metal Road documentary project was supported by several Project Grant awards.\n\nFilmmaker and Director Sarah del Seronde shared\, “I wanted to make Metal Road to shed light on two related\, yet often hidden issues: manual labor in the US and Native American Histories. Laborers are often the most economically oppressed people doing infrastructure jobs\, but the workers are strong and resilient as demonstrated by the generations of Navajo Railroaders. My hope is their labors will not go unnoticed any longer.”\n\nCheck out free screenings and follow Metal Road film news on their facebook page.

SUMMARY:Women on the Mother Road in Arizona: Route 66 - Kingman
DESCRIPTION:Screening and Discussion of Oral Histories and Documentary Film  \nCalled the “Mother Road” by author John Steinbeck\, U.S. Route 66 stretches some 2\,400 miles from Los Angeles to Chicago\, symbolic of the mobility available to Americans\, and an iconic highway for many travelers. Yet much of the historical perspective of the highway that passes through Arizona has primarily focused on men\, often overlooking the experiences of women and girls. Please join us for a screening and conversation with project director Katrina Parks\, historians Heidi Osselaer and Olivia Charest and archivist Sean Evans who will reexamine Route 66 from a female perspective. \nFunding for this program is provided in part by a grant from Arizona Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)\, with additional support from the Mohave Museum of History and the Arts. The event is free and open to the public. For more information\, please contact Katrina Parks at katrinaparks@mac.com.

SUMMARY:Use of Meteorites Among Native American Cultures - Sedona
DESCRIPTION:Meteorites Among Ancient Native American Cultures\nThe occurrence of meteorites on archaeological sites in North America has been known since the early 19th century. From the Hopewell culture in the eastern United States\, to the Polar Eskimo\, to the Indians in the American Southwest and northern Mexico\, meteorites have been found on these ancient sites. Much like meteorite hunters of today\, ancient Native American cultures actively engaged in meteorite collecting.  Although we cannot know if a meteorite fall was ever witnessed\, the discovery of meteorites  at ancient sites and the artifacts made from meteoritic iron appeared to have been reserved for ceremonial purposes. \nKenneth Zoll is the Executive Director of the Verde Valley Archaeology Center in Camp Verde. He is also a volunteer docent at cultural heritage sites in the Coconino National Forest. He has conducted extensive fieldwork in cultural astronomy of the Southwest and is a certified instructor in cultural astronomy with the Arizona Archaeological Society.

SUMMARY:Growing Up Chicana in Morenci\, Arizona - Sedona
DESCRIPTION:Growing Up Chicana in Morenci\, Arizona\nThrough a slide presentation of the town before its destruction in the late 1960s\, readings from Suffer Smoke and Water from the Moon\, and oral history interviews\, Díaz Björkquist portrays the lives of girls and women of Morenci in their own voices. It is a historically accurate picture of life for Mexican Americans in a segregated copper mining town from the 1920s to the late 1960s. This inspirational presentation pays tribute to four generations of Chicanas who\, in spite of discrimination\, persevered and showed that “si se puede” (it can be done). Morenci Chicanas were the “glue” that kept the family unit together with their unique cultural spirit\, showing courage and strength. \nElena Díaz Björkquist is a writer\, historian\, and artist from Tucson\, Arizona. She writes about Morenci where she was born. Elena is the author of two books\, Suffer Smoke and Water from the Moon and co-editor of Sowing the Seeds\, una cosecha de recuerdosand Our Spirit\, Our Reality; celebrating our Stories. She is a scholar and research affiliate with SIROW at the University of Arizona. Elena is the recipient of the 2012 Arizona Humanities Dan Shilling Public Humanities Scholar Award and the Arizona Commission on the Arts Bill Desmond Writing Award.
