Comments

Description: (1) “When the Romans Called upon Their Gods: Graffiti Dedicated to the God Mercury”: The walls of an ancient temple in the western Alps contain graffiti that illustrates how people practiced their religion 2000 years ago. (2) “They Never Left: Indigenous Reclamation and Return in the Southeast”: Some Indigenous people were never forced to leave what is now known as the State of Alabama. In this film, three Indigenous people answer their ancestors’ prayers to reclaim traditional lifeways, protect the environment, and teach us all how to better our relationships with the natural world and with Indigenous people.
