In July of 2007, then UUA President Sinkford asked, “What are our truths? To whom must we be reconciled?” We have many stories to uncover—genocide, slavery, oppression. Only by knowing our truths can we act boldly on our spiritual journey of healing. One of the major efforts of our UUFSD Racial Justice Project is to encourage our members and friends to “know our truths” by participating in ongoing educational programs relating to our Native American brothers and sisters. To that end, we recommend that members attend a screening of “Women Of The White Buffalo,” featuring SunRose IronShell as guest speaker on Saturday 8/27/22 at 11am (PST). Register HERE.
Synopsis: A matriarchal society upended by centuries of genocide and colonialism has disenfranchised the Lakota women and simultaneously reinforced their roles as the backbones of their communities and the keepers of their people’s ancient wisdom. These are the powerfully rich stories of the brave women and children living in one of the poorest counties in the United States. NOTE: The American Indian Educational Talks & Documentaries Project is housed at Palomar UU Fellowship.
