6 Generations 200 Years Later


Saturday, February 17

Documentary Screening and Q&A, plus a display about the 1824 Chumash Revolt



Ernestine's mother, Mary Yee, the last Barbareño language speaker, collaborated with anthropologist John Peabody Harrington from 1913, creating a narrative spanning three generations over 50 years. Using old drawings, photos, film footage, and interviews, filmmaker Paul Goldsmith crafts a poignant testimony to the resilience of the Chumash people, emphasizing the fierce endurance of the women.


Join us for a screening of "Six Generations," followed by an insightful Q&A session with Chumash elder Ernestine Ygnacio-De Soto and Professor Kristina Foss. Enhance your experience with a curated display on the 1824 Chumash Revolt, offering a glimpse into a pivotal moment in Chumash history. Discover the untold stories, triumphs, and challenges that have shaped the shared heritage of the Chumash people.

Registration is free for members at the Individual/Family level and higher, $10 non-members.
