Come one, come all – grab some popcorn and watch Behind the Shield from MediaEd Foundation. In this film, Nation magazine sports editor Dave Zirin looks at the myth that the NFL was not involved in politics. Zirin digs into decades of league history tracing the guise of “sticking to sports.” This case study reveals how the power of American football has managed to spread false information about topics including the sanctioning of certain ideas about gender roles, systemic racism, and patriotism. At the same time, Behind the Shield documents the role of activist athletes, even before Colin Kaepernick and other Black NFL players took a knee. Join us and learn about numerous players’ challenges to change an unjust status quo in order to create a different, more democratic America.

Produced in collaboration with the Nez Perce (Nimiipuu) Tribe, Covenant of the Salmon People is a 60-minute film exploring how the Nimiipuu people’s relationship to salmon has shaped them. As the oldest documented civilization in North America, the Nimiipuu date back over 16,000 years to a creation story that is an agreement to protect salmon and speak on their behalf. The covenant with salmon is woven into Nimiipuu culture, history, and now their modern-day species restoration work. This covenant is being impacted by the widespread construction of dams across Nimiipuu traditional lands, prompting questions: Will the work of the Nimiipuu be enough? How can we help?
