In today's contentiously divided world, stories of equality and unity are paramount. Chief Standing Bear embodied that saying, "That hand is not the color of yours, but if I prick it, blood will flow and I shall feel pain. The blood is of the same color as yours. God made me and I am a man."

To arrange for an exclusive showing of our documentary for your group or organization, please contact NCIA by phone at (402)471-3475. You can also visit our NCIA website for more information.
