Indians Push Industrial Plans for Blackfeet Reservation
A 28 minute color documentary by Jim Ludwig and the Blackfeet Nation showcases the 1.5 million acre reservation's potential for industrial development. The plan includes a fully equipped 67 acre industrial park and a $2.5 million airport to realize the tribe motto The past we've gained the future we'll achieve. The film highlights natural resources and recreation while noting alcoholism and substandard housing as ongoing challenges. Ludwig and tribal Chairman Earl Old Person emphasize practical steps and youth programs as keys to progress.
