DESCRIPTION:Mashpee Nine: The Beat Goes On is a story of injustice, outrage, activism, 
 and vindication that emboldened cultural pride and integrity for the 
 Wampanoag in Mashpee, Massachusetts nearly 40 years ago.\n\nThe story 
 begins with a July 29, 1976, midnight police raid, SWAT style, on a camp 
 for Mashpee children at the site of a recreated 17th century Wampanoag 
 village. The drummers—some in tents for the night, others talking around 
 the fire—were set upon, handcuffed and arrested by police in riot gear 
 with dogs. The police destroyed the camp and damaged village structures and 
 gardens.\n\nRelevant in terms of national attention drawn to abuses by law 
 enforcement today, this story was in danger of fading into distant memory. 
 Documentarians Paula Peters and Talia Landry are determined to revive this 
 story in the cultural and political context of Wampanoag existence in what 
 people today call “Cape Cod”—from first contact with the English boat 
 people, through the intervening centuries, to the events and aftermath of a 
 police raid.\n\nDiscussion with Hartman Deetz of the Mashpee Wampanoag 
 tribe will follow the film.\n\n$5, no one turned away for lack of funds. 
 \n\nFree snacks and popcorn!\n\n
