"Two Worlds Colliding" Documentary- National Film Board-

As part of this unit of study, we will be viewing this documentary (Tasha Hubbard), which is an inquiry into what came to be known as Saskatoon's infamous "freezing deaths," and the schism between a fearful, mistrustful Indigenous community and a police force harbouring a harrowing secret. Two Worlds Collide Documentary (49 minutes) 

One frigid night in January 2000 Darrell Night, an Indigenous man was dumped by two police officers in -20° C temperatures in a barren field on the city outskirts. He survives the ordeal but is stunned to hear that the frozen body of another Indigenous man was discovered in the same area. Days later, another victim, also Native, is found. When Night comes forward with his story, he sets into motion a chain of events: a major RCMP investigation into several suspicious deaths, the conviction of the two constables who abandoned him and the reopening of an old case, leading to a judicial inquiry. 

As we view this documentary, I want you to consider the following questions as they relate to the documentary "Two Worlds Colliding":

• According to the speaker, who determines what is just? What is fair? Consider, class, gender, and race. 
• Is justice fair? Include specific examples from the documentary. 
• Think about the documentary, why does justice sting? Why are the individuals/ family members speaking out? Explain 
• What is the reality of justice? (personal opinion)
• What factors interfere with the path of justice? 
• How or does each speaker/ individual consider equity, equality, and liberation?
