NATIVE CHILDREN’S SURVIVAL PROJECT PROTECT
ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN
ABOUT
ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN is a song and music picture about the international crisis of missing, murdered, and runaway children — inspired by Benford E. Standley's manuscript SOME RAN EAST...SOME RAN WEST and the help and support of Lakota country singer-songwriter Buddy Red Bow. The song was written and performed by Robby Romero to draw attention and support Standley’s efforts to help ‘homeless, abused, runaway, throwaway, and misplaced children and youth.’
In 1990, the music picture premiered at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) Cinema in Brooklyn, New York, and selected film festivals across Turtle Island, including the Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival.
ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN was produced by Grammy winner Holly Knight at the Village Recorder and mixed by Grammy winner Chris Lord-Alge. The Red Thunder lineup includes musicians Randy Castillo (Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crüe), Billboard Hot 100 recording artists Terri Nunn and Robbie Nevil, and multi-platinum recording artist Don Docken.
Shot on location in Los Angeles, the music picture features runaway children from the streets of Hollywood. With a special appearance by Rita Rogers and Grammy winners Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chile Peppers) and Rob Wasserman, appearances include Justine Bateman, Carpio Bernal, Coral Dawn Bernal, Rose Bernal, Gregory Darling, Kinky Friedman, Max Gail, Suzanne Mitchell, Dakhóta Romero, Desiree Romero, Christopher Star, John Trudell, Katie Wagner, and more.
ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN was produced on behalf of Native Children’s Survival and in association with Benford E. Standley, the Nipponzan-Myōhōji Buddhist Peace Movement, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the National Congress of American Indians, Limelight Productions, and Island Records.
The single and the music picture are available on our Village Market. 100% of profits support the work of Native Children’s Survival.
