About this title

Synopsis

Tribunal Rising commemorates the 1992 International Tribunal movement in the city of San Francisco to dismantle the legacy of Christopher Columbus and the Myth of Discovery. In 1990, "[a]t the culmination of the Special International Tribunal on the Human Rights Violations of Political Prisoners and Prisoners of War in the US, the American Indian Movement extended a call to national liberation movements and anti-imperialist allies, united by a shared vision of justice and equality. This vision emerged from a deep-seated commitment to human dignity and the elimination of age-old practices that perpetuate hatred and inflict both psychological and physical harm." This statement formed the cornerstone for the Counter-Quincentennial Celebration and the activities that put the US Federal Government on trial for its role in perpetuating the legacy of the Doctrine of Discovery and its consequent crimes against humanity.
