This May 10, while many celebrate Mother’s Day, thousands of mothers in Mexico take to the streets to search for their disappeared children—to demand truth, justice, and dignity.

We stand with them.

Their pain is not isolated. It is part of a broader crisis of violence that crosses borders. From the disappearance of more than 130,000 people in Mexico to the more than 40,000 lives lost each year to gun violence in the United States, mothers across our region are united by loss—and by their refusal to remain silent.

Their pain is our pain.

On behalf of the organizations and communities that form the People’s Movement for Peace and Justice, we honor the courage of the mothers who march, who search, and who transform grief into collective struggle.
Their fight is a fight for all of us.

We commit to continue building a cross-border movement for truth, justice, and life—so that no mother has to search, and no child is taken by violence.

This Mother’s Day, let’s make sure they are

💐Northeastern Native Arts Festival | Sounds of a Legacy Screening💐

Join NAIC-NY at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum for a screening of Sounds of Legacy, a documentary on musical icon and Mohawk son Robbie Robertson’s distant relationship to his Six Nations community. This unique story of truths withheld, cultural connections reestablished, and multi-generational healing unfolds with a musical thread. Haudenosaunee radio producer January Rogers reviews the sonic reverberations left behind by Six Nations’ most famous member to examine the vibrant yet disjointed musical community today and how Robertson’s legacy is, needs to be, and has yet to be embraced.

Afterward we will be joined by Haudenosaunee Producer, January Rogers for a Q&A about the film. January Rogers is a Mohawk/Tuscarora writer and media producer. She lives on her home territory of Six Nations of the Grand River where she operates Ojistoh Publishing and Productions. January combines her literary talents with her passions for media making to produce audio and video poetry. 

Through music, film, and collaborative conversation, this event provides a powerful space for families, students, and educators to connect with Indigenous perspectives.

We look forward to seeing you there!

The film offers an intimate portrait of resilience, identity, and how we care for our stories.
Following the screening, audiences are invited to a panel discussion and interactive workshop led by the film’s composer, Kino Benally (Diné) .
