Indigenous Ministries & Tribal Relations Class

In collaboration with ELCA Indigenous Ministries and Tribal Relations and in attunement with the Truth and Healing Movement of the ELCA, and moving toward right relationship with our Indigenous siblings and neighbors, ELCA Coaching invites you to join us for this opportunity "to learn the true history and current realities of Indigenous people. It is these truths, truths that have been ignored by most for hundreds of years, that will bring healing for both Indigenous people and non-Indigenous people."

This online event is scheduled for Thursday, October 10, at 10am-12pm Hawaii | 11am-1pm Alaska | 12-2pm Pacific | 1-3pm Mountain | 2-4pm Central | 3-5pm Eastern | 4-6pm Atlantic. (Time zones may vary with Daylight Saving Time. We do our best to include other time zones as we understand them to be. Please double-check your time zone against the Central time noted. Times noted at the top of this page are in Central time.)

"The general population knows very little about the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island. Even the most basic topics are often grand mysteries. This is by design – for centuries the colonial project has prioritized the complete erasure of Native people. 'Indian 101' explains some of these basics to build a foundation for students to stand in solidarity with Indian people across the United States as we work together to dismantle long-standing systems of oppression."
