Nov. 3 — UCSB Arts & Lectures presents ‘Warrior Women,’ a film screening and conversation featuring Madonna Thunder Hawk and Marcella Gilbert

UCSB Arts & Lectures is pleased to present Warrior Women, featuring Madonna Thunder Hawk and Marcella Gilbert on Wednesday, November 3, at 7:30 p.m. Pacific at Campbell Hall. Warrior Women chronicles the lifelong work of Madonna Thunder Hawk – a leader in the American Indian Movement – and Marcella Gilbert, a Lakota mother and daughter whose fight for Indigenous rights began in the late 1960s and continues to this day. Through their story, the award-winning documentary explores what it means to balance a movement with motherhood and how activist legacies are passed from generation to generation. The hour-long film will be followed by a moderated conversation with Madonna Thunder Hawk, Marcella Gilbert and director/producer Dr. Elizabeth Castle.
