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. 

Climate Grief Circle

Virtual

There's a LOT going on in the world. Climate disasters, war and violence, political discord, not to mention the everyday challenges of work, family, health, etc. With so much happening, it can feel extra difficult to slow down to find the emotional and spiritual wherewithal to hold it all. How do we have any energy left to focus on organizing our faith communities for climate justice? 

It's easier in a community where we can find connection and support to make it through tough times. And in our GreenFaith community, we are fortunate to be bolstered by our faiths. Please join one or both of these upcoming programs focused on just that.
