“We are not victims, we are survivors.” 

The Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation can trace its lineage back 12,000 years, as original inhabitants of southern California.

Augmented by incisive observations from Native American historians and a range of subject matter experts, this is the incredible story of a People who has survived against overwhelming odds to become a sovereign, prosperous nation within the great nation of the United States.

Produced by Loma Media in association with Hard Rain Productions, the program is being made available to educational institutions and cultural organizations across the United States.
