The film above has been created to recognize the day and the words of collaborators for the National Day of Mourning for Indigenous peoples. It includes explanations about the history and reverberations of the Day of Mourning by Dr. Stephanie Pratt and Marial Quezada and a poignant reading of Frank James’ suppressed text which he wrote for the 350th anniversary of the Mayflower’s sailing, which he was not allowed to read. 2020 marks the 400th commemoration of the arrival of the Mayflower. #NoNewWorlds
