(Boulder, Colo.). Graphics: DWI Associates (Boulder, Colo.). The Native American Rights Fund is but one of many Indian organizations throughout the country working for American Indians on the local, regional, and national levels. Why have these Indian groups come into being and how do they fit into Indian life and Indian rights? To a great extent, it is failure of federal policy which has made these groups necessary. It was the failure of the federal government to fully protect the legal rights of Indians which brought NARF into being. Although Indians possess the same general rights as other people in this country, we also have rights unique to Indians, rights inherited from our ancestors and necessary for the preservation of our traditional ways of life. Many of these rights are guaranteed in treaties negotiated by the United States with Indian tribes on a sovereign-to-sovereign basis, and are part of the supreme law of the land, the United States Constitu­ tion. These special Indian rights concern tribal self­ government, water, land, hunting and fishing, Native religious freedom, and other matters upon which the survival of Indian people today is dependent. Unfortunately, there are those who would wipe out all Indian rights if they could. And to hide their real motives, these people speak of equality of citizenship. But we know that this means losing the more important rights that are vested in tribal rights. Our recent history with the tragic termination policy of the 1950s and '60s, in which an end to the federal trusteeship for Indians was attempted, has shown that Indian tribes need to Roger Jim Steering Committee Chairman survive as sovereign tribal nations to prevent the further loss of Indian property and rights. States and local governments, as well as the federal government, still attack Indian rights. Indian nations, therefore, will continue to need legal assistance in order to defend their rights against contrary claims, to strengthen their tribal governments to withstand the more sophisticated attacks of the non-tribal society, and to increase tribal expertise to avoid losing what we have left. As chairman of the Steering Committee of the Native American Rights Fund, I have not only the obligation but the sincere desire to see that Indian individuals, organizations, and tribes receive whatever assistance NARF is able to provide which will help protect the rights that affect Indian countty and Indian people. All tribal leaders, myself as well as others, must prove our right to lead our people through our actions. And it must be action that does not compromise the rights of Indian people, but assures that the dominant society will give recognition to tribal rights and tribal nations. 2 The year 1982 was the twelfth year in which the f\jative American Rights Fund provided legal representation to Indian tribes, organizations, and individuals on issues of major significance to Indian people throughout the country. With $270,000 less in federal funds due to federal program budget cuts, 1982 was our most difficult year financially. Remarkably, however, private contributors recognized the importance of our work and their support enabled us to replace these lost federal funds and maintain the level of our services. The access to justice for our Indian clients made possible by this financial support produced, once again in 1982, many Indian rights successes. The most significant achievements were in two cases that NARF has been involved in for several years.

  • Press Kit (PDF)
    Synopsis 1 The ocean is a wilderness reaching 'round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. - Henry David Thoreau, 1864 For the nineteenth century, the world beneath the sea played much the same role that "outer space" played for the twentieth. The ocean depths were at once the ultimate scientific frontier and what Coleridge called "the reservoir of the soul": the place of the unconscious, of imagination and the fantastic. Proteus uses the undersea world as the locus for a meditation on the troubled intersection of scientific and artistic vision. The one-hour film is based almost entirely on the images of nineteenth century painters, graphic artists, photographers and scientific illustrators, photographed from rare materials in European and American collections and brought to life through innovative animation. The central figure of the film is biologist and artist Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919). As a young man, Haeckel found himself torn between seeming irreconcilables: science and art, materialism and religion, rationality and passion, outer and inner worlds. Through his discoveries beneath the sea, Haeckel would eventually reconcile these dualities, bringing science and art together in a unitary, almost mystical vision. His work would profoundly influence not only biology but also movements, thinkers and authors as disparate as Art Nouveau and Surrealism, Sigmund Freud and D.H. Lawrence, Vladimir Lenin and Thomas Edison. The key to Haeckel's vision was a tiny undersea organism called the radiolarian. Haeckel discovered, described, classified and painted four thousand species of these one-celled creatures.

  • LGBTQ Episodic Television Study Guide
    Archive Study Guide: LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER TELEVISION: SITCOMS AND EPISODIC DRAMAS ARCHIVE STUDY GUIDE The representation of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) communities on television is marked by a history of stereotypes and inexplicable invisibility. By the 1970s, gay media-watch groups communicated their concerns to the television industry and a sense of cooperation began to emerge between the LG BT community and broadcasters. During the 1980s, the AIDS crisis and resulting prejudices ushered in a new era of problematic and offensive portrayals. In the late 1990s, Ellen Degeneres' landmark coming out, (both in real- life, and through the character she portrayed in her sitcom), generated much controversy and discussion, ultimately paving the way for well -developed gay characters in prominent primetime TV roles. Despite such advances, stereotypes continue to resurface and perpetuate, and the full diversity of the LGBT community is more often than not underrepresented in the mass media. This is only a partial list – consult the Archive Research and Study Center for additional titles, including relevant materials held in the Outfest Legacy Collection.

    SOMERVILLE THEATRE SF42 February 2017 Dear Film Lover, Thank you for coming to the 42nd installment of our long love affair with film and science fiction. For 42 years we have gathered in darkened theatres and journeyed into space, through time and into worlds only our imaginations could conjure. Some folks would look at this and say we are avoiding reality. I would counter, just the opposite. The stories we tell in science fiction film are the stories of right now. They reflect our concerns, our fears, and our hopes. The films we show at BostonSciFi will later be seen in theatres, on Netflix and other places. We are on the cutting edge of reality. You will see all of that in this year’s Festival. Filmmakers from around the world have shared their stories. By doing so, we find ourselves more similar than different, closer than we think, and much closer than the political environment would lead us to believe. So please, sit back and enjoy the 2017 version of the Boston Science Fiction Film Festival. We’re pleased you could make it, and we hope we have presented a unique, entertaining Festival. Thank you.
