- Summary
- Across the United States, Native Americans are struggling to protect their sacred places. Religious freedom, so valued in America, is not guaranteed to those who practice land-based religions. This film presents three indigenous communities in their struggles to protect their sacred sites from rock climbers, tourists, strip-mining and development and New Age religious practitioners. Examines: Mato tipila (Devil's tower, Wyoming) (25 min.); Hopitutskwa (Hopi land, Northern Arizona) (23 min.); Bulyum Puyuik (Mt. Shasta, California) (26 min.).
