Beyond food, the Anishinabek and Ojibwe People of the Great Lakes region have a long-established set of practices, lifestyles, and governance structures that are deeply integrated into cultures and communities. The arrival of Europeans and the eventual establishment of the colonial state violently disrupted Indigenous ways of being. However, Indigenous people have persisted. This has included court battles to protect Inherent rights and active participation in traditional fishing activities despite ongoing state suppression. Today, Batchewana operates the largest and most successful fishery on the Canadian side of Lake Superior. This includes 27 captains and their crews that depend on the fisheries for sustenance as well as sales to local processing plants, restaurants, and farmers' markets across the region. To this day, the People of Batchewana continue to fish as part of an inherited obligation to all of Creation, with caring for the fisheries part of their responsibility.

DVD-R, wide screen.
