Healing this Broken Land: Indigenous Leadership in the Face of Climate Crisis

Virtual

Through the leadership of Indigenous people, so many of us have come into an understanding of the violent history of Thanksgiving and have changed our relationship to the holiday. In that spirit, join SURJ, other movement organizations, and Indigenous leaders to deepen your commitment to and understanding of present-day Indigenous struggles.

This year, the annual "rethinking Thanksgiving" webinar will focus on the role of Indigenous leadership and Indigenous sovereignty in our collective fight against climate catastrophe. We'll hear from Indigenous climate justice leaders about their communities fighting at the heart of the issue, and how the Doctrine of Discovery and legacy of colonization fuels the current climate crisis.

The Energy Transition & Community Solar’s Role in Tribal Energy Sovereignty

As climate change drives our energy sources to change from fossil fuels to renewable energy, frontline communities and Tribal nations deserve an equitable transition.

Roots of Injustice, Seeds of Change: Toward Right Relationship with Native Peoples

Virtual

In this 2-hour participatory program, we experience the history of the colonization of Turtle Island, the land that is now known as the United States. The story is told through the words of Indigenous leaders, European/American leaders, and Western historians. We engage with this history through experiential exercises and small group discussions. And we are invited to consider how we can build relationships with Indigenous peoples based on truth, respect, justice, and our shared humanity. Facilitated by TRR's Native and non-Native teams. Appropriate for high school students and adults.
