TRIBAL JUSTICE - September 28, 2021
Glenbow is pleased to welcome back award winning filmmaker Anne Makepeace for the Western Canadian premier of Tribal Justice.
The film focuses on the efforts of two indigenous judges Abby Abinanti and Claudette White, who use traditional concepts of justice to reduce incarceration rates, foster greater safety in their communities, and create a positive environment for youth. These models of restorative are proving effective in addressing the root of crime, and courts across America are taking notice. Following the film Anne Makepeace will be in conversation with Elder and Piikani Traditionalist, Jerry Potts.
Admission $10/Members $8
