It’s Saturday! This is the FIRST Saturday of November. November is National Native American Heritage Month.
November is Native American Heritage Month. Gayle Anderson learns the early results of the NATIVE AMERICANS WITH DIABETES PROJECT. The non-project organization Project Angel Food, which prepares and delivers healthy meals to people impacted by illness, initiated this project October 11th, 2020.
The two-year study integrates nutrition, social needs, and tradition and measures how Project Angel Food’s Medically Tailored Meals, combined with counseling, and community can improve health outcomes and mental wellbeing of Indigenous People with Diabetes. This research is made possible with underwriting from Project Angel Food board member Runningbear Ramirez.

Ruby Dee
The Jackie Robinson Story (1950)
Sunday, November 6th @ 2pm
Ted Mann Theater
Academy Museum of Motion Pictures
6067 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles
academymuseum.org
In one of her earliest onscreen roles, Ruby Dee embodies the real-life figure of Rachel “Rae” Isum, who married pioneering baseball player Jackie Robinson just one year before he became the first African American to play in Major League Baseball in 1947. Cast to portray himself in this filmed version of his life while simultaneously boasting his best year to date with the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson exudes a calm, confident resolution onscreen, shared by Dee’s Rae as his endlessly supportive partner. In another stroke of realism, Dee was the exact same age as Rae during filming: both were born in 1922.
DIRECTOR: Alfred E. Green. WRITTEN BY: Lawrence Taylor, Arthur Mann. CAST: Jackie Robinson, Ruby Dee, Minor Watson, Louise Beavers. 1950. 77 min. USA. B&W. English. 35mm. Print courtesy of the Library of Congress.
Academy Museum film programming generously funded by the Richard Roth Foundation.
