Uploaded on Aug 9, 2010

Made by "Reel Change for Nonprofits" participants Tracy Basile and Scott Halfmann of WESPAC and Friends of Turtle Island. Scott and Tracy were participants in the spring 2010 "Reel Change for Nonprofits" class at the Jacob Burns Film Center's Media Arts Lab. The Unfractured Future brings Native voices to the forefront of an urgent issue in New York State. The natural gas extraction process known as hydraulic fracturing threatens our water and our future. The film urges all to envision an unfractured future together. It offers perspectives rarely heard in the American environmental movement or in mainstream media today.

    Apparently, Prometheus your language is working? It needs a different way of thinking and most certainly Native peoples have kept this place clean until the 'non-magical and non-sacred' thinking came in to fix it by polluting it.

    Great points and illustrations presented here, but, if you try to reach as wide an audience as possible, why do you introduce language like "sacred water" and magical references? We need clean water to survive. We don't violate some ancient sacred law. If we're stupid, we'll perish and nature wouldn't give a damn.

    Fracking is really bad, we should understand this, realize the dangers and act to prevent it.

    Listen to the ancient laws of nature, before it is too late.

    If we don't do something, where will we be in the future.?

    We can make a difference by getting involved with more organizations in your area. This must stop. If you can't find a place to be heard, start your own, get involved with your government, vote your views. Just do something !!

    Thanks for your work, Tracy and Scott.
