Synopsis:
"Reclaiming Their Voice" follows Native Americans who are stepping forward and speaking out against injustice. The film documents several communities located in New Mexico, which represent a microcosm of growing awareness and activism taking root across the United States. The film begins with the history of the Spanish conquest of the Americas, then the Pueblo Revolt, Wounded Knee, the evolution of voting rights for native people, the Laguna tribe's groundbreaking voter registration drive in 2004, the Sacred Alliance for Grassroots Equality's work to preserve sacred petroglyphs, the passage of new legislation to support and protect Native American voting rights and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People. Each segment follows the challenges faced by native communities, the actions taken to protect their rights, as well as the progress and outcomes of their efforts. Stories underscore ways Native Americans are working together to improve their lives through education and activism, as they reclaim their voices in the political process.
