John Ware Reclaimed follows filmmaker Cheryl Foggo on her quest to re-examine the mythology surrounding John Ware, the Black Cowboy who settled in Alberta, Canada, before the turn of the 20th century. Foggo’s research uncovers who this iconic figure might have been, and what his legacy means in terms of anti-Black racism, both past and present. Film recommended for ages 12+ (due to some difficult language pertaining to racism).- Special Thanks to the Ward Community Fund for being one of our sponsors for this event!
