SUMMARY:The Daughter of Dawn Remix - FILM
DESCRIPTION:Shot in 1920 in the Wichita Mountains of southwest Oklahoma with a cast entirely made up of members of the Comanche and Kiowa tribes\, this silent film was directed by Norbert A. Myles and screened publicly only twice before disappearing without a trace for nearly a century. The Indigenous actors\, who in 1920 had been living on reservations for less than sixty years\, brought their own tipis\, horses\, clothing\, and material culture with them.  \nFilmmaker Tweesna Rose Mills presents a revisionist take on the film\, interweaving original footage with new imagery and soundscapes to invite viewers to experience the work through a modern lens. \nLive audio description by Audio-Reader Network \nPresented in partnership with the Spencer Museum of Art

SUMMARY:Joe Rainey - MUSIC
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE ARTIST\nJoe Rainey is a Pow Wow singer. On his new album\, Niineta\, he demonstrates his command of the Pow Wow style\, descending from Indigenous singing that’s been heard across the waters of what is now called Minnesota for centuries. Depending on the song or the pattern\, his voice can celebrate or console\, welcome or intimidate\, wake you up with a start or lull your babies to sleep. Each note conveys a clear message\, no matter the inflection: We’re still here. We were here before you were\, and we never left.
