About this Event

Deskaheh weaves the profound story of Haudenosaunee leader Deskaheh Levi General’s travels from Six Nations of the Grand River to the League of Nations between 1923 and 1925, where he sought to gain international recognition of the Haudenosaunee's sovereignty. Co-created by Allan Downey, Tekenikhon Doreen, Jersee Hill, Kira Gibson, and Saki Murotani, Deskaheh is the result of an Indigenous youth mentorship program at McMaster University, which empowers Indigenous youth to create digital animations that bring Indigenous histories to life for public education.

The hosts will be serving food and refreshments in Waller Lobby directly following the screening.

This FREE event is co-sponsored by McMaster Department of History.
