Kanenon:we - Original Seeds

Divider Line
Kansas City PBS

Description

Kanenon:we-Original Seeds carries viewers into the grassroots Indigenous seed sovereignty movement led by Haudenosaunee women. It offers a glimpse into the challenges facing the world related to food security and is a powerful view of what is possible in Indigenous communities working towards food sovereignty. Prior to European contact, there was a rich and vibrant diversity of foods, with women primarily responsible for caretaking of the seeds. Genocidal practices including boarding schools, land theft, relocation, imposed religion and even food warfare contributed to a disconnection from traditional foods and seeds. Kanenon:we-Original Seeds features Indigenous women who are reclaiming their role as traditional seed keepers honoring the work of their ancestors to ensure their survival for future generations.
