The Multicultural Advisory Council of Bainbridge Island Schools is sponsoring Salon Nights, a series of powerful documentary films on themes of social justice and diversity. The first Salon Night of 2019 will be held on Tuesday, January 15, with Dawnland.
Dawnland is a riveting documentary about government-sanctioned forced removal of Native children from their homes for placement in “White” households, a practice which continued until the 1970’s.
In this podcast, Kathy McGowan of the Multicultural Advisory Council (MAC) describes the Salon Night series, which is free, designed for open conversation about the films, and open to people of all ages.
Dawnland shows Tuesday, January 15 from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM at the Bainbridge Island Schools Boardroom at 9530 NE High School Road. Park in the lower parking lot – known as “the pit.” The Boardroom is between Bainbridge High School & Commodore Options school.
