Toward Right Relationship With Native Peoples
Join us in an interactive, two-hour exercise that traces the historic and ongoing impacts of the Doctrine of Discovery, the 15th century legal justification for European subjugation of the land and peoples of this continent. The workshop, a response to a call from Indigenous leaders of the UN and World Council of Churches, will help us increase awareness of these impacts, recognize them in ourselves and our institutions, and explore how we might begin to take actions toward right relationship with Indigenous peoples.
