Looking Toward Home Part Two
"Looking Toward Home Part Two" continues an exploration of urban Indian life in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco with a look at off-reservation relocation in the 1950s and 1960s and the present-day native community life in U.S. cities. "Looking Toward Home" explains how government relocation programs enticed significant numbers of Native Americans to leave the reservation for life in major cities, an exodus that continues today. Narrator Conroy Chino explores the issues facing native people in urban environments, illustrating the importance of access to adequate health care and education as well as the strong sense of community and cultural identity needed to thrive in the big city.
