A study of Michael, about three years old
when he was adopted, who began to
experience problems as a preadolescent.
His therapist, Dr. Hugh Leichtman, found
in Michael a preoccupation with his birth
mother and an ambivalence about his
adoptive family that suggested a reunion

resolve the conflicting loyalties that were
interfering with his development.

ALTERS
ALTERS
Some alters in DID systems may identify
with the perpetrators of their abuse,
becoming hostile or self-injuring.
Understandably, therapists tend to work
with the more gratifying, compliant, and
attractive alters, instead of those who are
rageful and obstinate. Yet these hostile
alters were often the most hurt and
betrayed, and are the most in need of
healing. In this video, David Calof
addresses their special needs and
demonstrates techniques for working with
them, including establishing a therapeutic
alliance, getting consensus from the
system, and a distressed child alter.
Note: 11 min. of therapy session
material from this video appears in Self
Injury II.

RACE AND RACISM
SUN SUN SUN KISSED
KISSED
Directed by Maya Stark and Adi Lavy
One gene exposes a nation's dark past. A
Navajo couple with two children born with
an extremely rare genetic disorder
investigate the cause of the outbreak.
For fifteen years Dorey and Yolanda Nez
thought they were the only family on the
Navajo Reservation who had children with
an extremely rare genetic disorder that
only shows up at a rate of one in a million
in the general population. Behind the
closed curtains of their trailer, parked in
the stark desert of New Mexico, they care
for their 16-year-old daughter Leanndra.
Just like her brother who passed away at
age 11, Leanndra was born with
Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP), a rare
genetic disorder that makes any exposure
to sunlight fatal.
Filmed over three years, with
unprecedented access to the Navajo
community, Sun Kissed follows Dorey and
Yolanda as they bravely confront long-held
tribal taboos and question the rebellious
choices of their youth. Ultimately their
journey leads them to the shocking truth:
Their children and other Navajo children
are still paying the price for the American
conquest of the tribe in the 1860s, a brutal
campaign culminating in an
almost-forgotten chapter in American
history -- the Navajo "Long Walk" of 1864.
Despite its importance as the defining
moment in modern Navajo history and the
beginning of their assimilation into
American society, discussing the tragedy
of the Long Walk remains a taboo topic
within the Navajo community.
What Dorey and Yolanda find challenges
the core of their identity and everything
they believe in, and exposes a fresh
perspective on the complex, cross-cultural
identity of modern day Navajos. Focusing
on the continuing implications of American
colonialism and the genetic imprints it has
left on this community, Sun Kissed
presents a rare and realistic window into
the issues confronting Native Americans
today.
Reviews
� "A rare filmmaking
accomplishment...an amazing work
that will touch your soul." - Bruce
Johansen, Professor, Native
American Studies, University of
Nebraska
� "Sun Kissed is a quiet, insistent look
at some of the lasting effects of the
Long Walk. It examines both the
unknown and the unknowable along
with the well known and the ignored.
This is a film that should be examined
along the wide arc of Native issues in
contemporary America." - Theodore
Van Alst, Assistant Dean of Yale
College, Director of the Native
American Cultural Center, Yale
University
