The story of the Colorado River Indian Tribes, in this continuation of the origin story we learn how the Chemehuevi people had been on the reservation from the beginning, and how a mid-20th century colonization program allowed members of the Hopi & Navajo Tribes to join CRIT . The film features elders from each of these tribes who tell their stories about arriving on the CRIT reservation at a time when thousands of Japanese Americans were interned by the government on the land.
