ImagineNative Film & Media Arts Festival: What are We Being Taught?

Filmmaker, Alanis Obomsawin's new documentary looks at education and how children are taught in our society. the subject of her new film PROFESSOR NORMAN CORNETT asks the question: "Since when do we divorce the right answer from an honest answer?" This award-winning (Governor General's award, Order of Canada) director, usually focuses her lens on Native peoples, but she turns the camera on Professor Cornett after his dismissal by McGill University. What is he teaching? Why was he dismissed? I'm going to find out. Why don't you.
