Joining us is Autumn Two Bulls– born on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in 1981 – a direct descendent of Chief Smoke, original chief to the Teton Wan Lakota, and Chief Young Man Afraid of His Horses, one of the chiefs who signed the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. Autumn will discuss uniting and empowering urban and tribal women though native traditions.

Later, we will have a conversation with some of the folk at imMEDIAte Justice (IMJ) -Jacqueline Sun, film producer, mentor, Mariana Velázquez, film producer, and one of the student filmmakers. We will discuss the upcoming, December 4, ImMEDIAte Justice 2010 film premier of four 30-second films made by IMJ young women with the support of mentors. ImMEDIAte Justice empowers young women and queer people of color with the knowledge and skill-sets to generate new images via film of reproductive freedom that inspire community action and global dialogue.
