The Climate Science Alliance is excited to share the new extended trailer for Condor Visual Media's Indigenous-led feature-length documentary "MAATHAAW: The Fire Within Us", out now! Premiered at the 2023 San Diego Climate Summit on September 20th on Kumeyaay lands, the extended version is now available to all.
“MAATHAAW: The Fire Within Us” is an Indigenous-led research feature-length film that documents the cultural, emotional, and scientific relationships of Southern California Tribes with the gift of fire. Emphasizing a reclamation of traditional ways to inform current fire management practices, this effort will bring Indigenous voices to the forefront and acknowledge their leadership in climate adaptation and resilience. This is a story that will serve as an example of the transformative efforts in advancing climate adaptation planning and actions occurring in the region by highlighting the continued resilience and vibrancy of Indigenous communities and practices.
