An LPB documentary about the history and rebirth of the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana.

The Tunica – a name that simply means “the people” – joined with the Biloxi tribe and once teetered on the verge of extinction. But today this independent sovereign nation is once again flourishing on their ancestral lands just outside the town of Marksville. Join us for “A Promise from the Sun,” as we see the story of the tribe’s rebirth and the unfolding of an assurance made long ago.
