From there, we will move into Boyd 107, where we&#8217;ll show a film called &#8220;In Whose Honor?,&#8221; a documentary by filmmaker Jay Rosenstein about the practice of using Native Americans as mascots for sports teams\u2014something that hits pretty close to home here at Miami. The film, which premiered on PBS in August 1997, won numerous awards and was broadcast internationally to great acclaim.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the documentary, we will be showing a short video about Miami\u2019s own experience with this issue, and we\u2019ll invite discussion afterward. Ron Scott, associate vice president of institutional diversity at Miami, will be there to facilitate the discussion.<\/p>\n<p>There is a survey in everyone&#8217;s inbox indicating whether or not they&#8217;re planning to come, and we&#8217;ll be sending out calendar invites soon as well.
