Then they confront a problem that even being a happy family can’t solve: When identity matters, and privilege is problematic, what is the value of being a straight white man?

Join Sheridan Community Land Trust for a special evening edition of Explore History as we observe National Native American History Month with a screening of “Powwow Highway” — a groundbreaking film recognized in the National Film Registry for its authentic portrayal of Native American life and its powerful cultural impact.

The film is celebrated for elevating Indigenous storytelling, tackling issues like poverty and environmental degradation, and highlighting spirituality, activism, and art. It also helped launch the careers of several Native actors.

Adding to its local connection, Powwow Highway was partially filmed right here in Sheridan — and some community members were even part of the crew and cast. Come experience this important piece of film history and celebrate National Native American History Month with us. SCLT Explore History is free to attend and open to all. Sign up at the link below.
