A study of Michael, about three years old<br />
when he was adopted, who began to<br />
experience problems as a preadolescent.<br />
His therapist, Dr. Hugh Leichtman, found<br />
in Michael a preoccupation with his birth<br />
mother and an ambivalence about his<br />
adoptive family that suggested a reunion<br />
with his birth mother might allow him to<br />
resolve the conflicting loyalties that were<br />
interfering with his development.<br />

Brief vignettes present a child making a<br />
statement that would elicit an adult<br />
response. Pauses between these "trigger<br />
scenes" permit parents or students who<br />
are improving <strong>com</strong>munications and child<br />
management skills to practice making<br />
responses. Eight of the scenes are<br />
especially appropriate for foster parents.<br />

ALTERS<br />
ALTERS<br />
Some alters in DID systems may identify<br />
with the perpetrators of their abuse,<br />
be<strong>com</strong>ing hostile or self-injuring.<br />
Understandably, therapists tend to work<br />
with the more gratifying, <strong>com</strong>pliant, and<br />
attractive alters, instead of those who are<br />
rageful and obstinate. Yet these hostile<br />
alters were often the most hurt and<br />
betrayed, and are the most in need of<br />
healing. In this video, David Calof<br />
addresses their special needs and<br />
demonstrates techniques for working with<br />
them, including establishing a therapeutic<br />
alliance, getting consensus from the<br />
system, and a distressed child alter.<br />
Note: 11 min. of therapy session<br />

RACE AND RACISM<br />
SUN SUN SUN KISSED<br />
KISSED<br />
Directed by Maya Stark and Adi Lavy<br />
One gene exposes a nation's dark past. A<br />
Navajo couple with two children born with<br />
an extremely rare genetic disorder<br />
investigate the cause of the outbreak.<br />
For fifteen years Dorey and Yolanda Nez<br />
thought they were the only family on the<br />
Navajo Reservation who had children with<br />
an extremely rare genetic disorder that<br />
only shows up at a rate of one in a million<br />
in the general population. Behind the<br />
closed curtains of their trailer, parked in<br />
the stark desert of <strong>New</strong> Mexico, they care<br />
for their 16-year-old daughter Leanndra.<br />
Just like her brother who passed away at<br />
age 11, Leanndra was born with<br />
Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP), a rare<br />
genetic disorder that makes any exposure<br />
to sunlight fatal.<br />
Filmed over three years, with<br />
unprecedented access to the Navajo<br />
<strong>com</strong>munity, Sun Kissed follows Dorey and<br />
Yolanda as they bravely confront long-held<br />
tribal taboos and question the rebellious<br />
choices of their youth. Ultimately their<br />
journey leads them to the shocking truth:<br />
Their children and other Navajo children<br />
are still paying the price for the American<br />
conquest of the tribe in the 1860s, a brutal<br />
campaign culminating in an<br />
almost-forgotten chapter in American<br />
history -- the Navajo "Long Walk" of 1864.<br />
Despite its importance as the defining<br />
moment in modern Navajo history and the<br />
beginning of their assimilation into<br />
American society, discussing the tragedy<br />
of the Long Walk remains a taboo topic<br />
within the Navajo <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />
What Dorey and Yolanda find challenges<br />
the core of their identity and everything<br />
they believe in, and exposes a fresh<br />
perspective on the <strong>com</strong>plex, cross-cultural<br />
identity of modern day Navajos. Focusing<br />
on the continuing implications of American<br />
colonialism and the genetic imprints it has<br />
left on this <strong>com</strong>munity, Sun Kissed<br />
presents a rare and realistic window into<br />
the issues confronting Native Americans<br />
today.<br />
Reviews<br />
� "A rare filmmaking<br />
ac<strong>com</strong>plishment...an amazing work<br />
that will touch your soul." - Bruce<br />
Johansen, Professor, Native<br />
American Studies, University of<br />
Nebraska<br />
� "Sun Kissed is a quiet, insistent look<br />
at some of the lasting effects of the<br />
Long Walk. It examines both the<br />
unknown and the unknowable along<br />
with the well known and the ignored.<br />
This is a film that should be examined<br />
along the wide arc of Native issues in<br />
contemporary America." - Theodore<br />
Van Alst, Assistant Dean of Yale<br />
College, Director of the Native<br />
American Cultural Center, Yale<br />
University<br />
