Marquette – Northern Michigan University’s annual Uniting Neighbors in the Experience of Diversity (UNITED) Conference will feature a showing of the documentary “Finding Dawn” on Sunday, September 25 at 6 p.m. in the Great Lakes Rooms of the University Center.
The 2006 film by Christine Welsh puts a human face on a national tragedy: the murders and disappearances of an estimated 500 Aboriginal women in Canada over the past 30 years. From Vancouver’s Skid Row to the Highway of Tears in northern British Columbia, to Saskatoon, this film honors those who have passed and uncovers reasons for hope.
The event is free. A complete schedule of the UNITED Conference events is available at www.nmu.edu/united.
