For decades alliances of Natives and non-Natives in this small city in Minnesota's north woods have been fighting racial inequity in its many forms. This hour-long documentary focuses on the incredible work of the last 50 years -- from the 1966 tribal boycott of Bemidji businesses, to the city-sponsored intertribal pow wow last past April. Race relations work here continues to grow wider and deeper.
