In the Light of Reverence

Christopher (Toby) McLeod, Malinda Maynor Lowery

This documentary, originally broadcast on the PBS series "P.O.V." ("Point of View"), explores three places considered sacred by American Indians: Devils Tower in Wyoming, the Colorado Plateau in the Southwest and Mount Shasta in California. The Lakota, Hopi and Wintu people who traditionally care for these areas still struggle to co-exist with non-Indians who have very different ideas about land, culture and what is sacred.
