Mankiller

https://athenafilmfestival.com/film/mankiller/



"Valerie Red-Horse Mohl’s documentary tells the tale of a true American legend, Wilma Mankiller (1945-2010), a community organizer-turned-political leader who defied all odds to make a difference for her people. During a time when American Indians found themselves disenfranchised and undervalued by the United States at large, Wilma emerged as a champion of the Cherokee Nation and became its first female Principal Chief.

The film will be followed by a conversation with director Valerie Red-Horse Mohl, executive producer Gale Anne Hurd, and journalist and activist Gloria Steinem. Ann Hornaday from the Washington Post will moderate."
