The People of the Standing Stone: The Oneida Nation, the War for Independence, and the Making of America; Video available through Kanopy

Narrated by Academy Award Winner Kevin Costner, and directed by Emmy Award winner Ric Burns, People of Standing Stone explores the little known, yet crucial history of the extraordinary contributions of one Native American people-the Oneidas-who during the darkest hours of the Revolutionary War became the only member of the Six Nation Iroquois Confederacy to side with rebelling colonists.

This powerful and sweeping film is a moving and unique cinematic experience that sheds light on an American story that has gone shamefully overlooked in the annals of American history.
