On Tuesday, March 26, 2024, at Delaware Valley University, I had the privilege of attending an event presented by the Graduate Psychology Speaker’s Series and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion centered around a short documentary about Pennsylvania’s Lenape Nation, “Keepers of the Way.” The evening included a screening of the “Keepers of the Way” documentary and a panel discussion and Q&A with the director, producer, and the Lenape tribal members of the film.

Elijah Reeder is a producer of the film and is also a Bucks County native. His connection with the film was his interest in his home state and its historical origins. Chuck Gentlemoon DeMund, Chief of the Lenape Turtle Clan, showed gratitude to Creator, their ancestors, and the film crew for the opportunity to be a part of the film and this event. Tribal members Ken Wolf Eyes Macaulay and John Strong Wind Martin also took part in the panel and shared their views on the importance of keeping Lenape history and culture alive.
The documentary was a film full of natural beauty and emotion. The filmmakers succeeded in capturing the history, ceremonies, and rituals of the Lenape people without any outside influence or interference. It focused on “The Prophecy of the Fourth Crow” and the Lenape’s journey of healing the land wounded by The Walking Purchase of 1737. Several…
