Dismantling the Doctrine of Discovery

  • Zoom Lakewood, CO 80232 USA (map)

Thursdays: January 15, 22, & 29; February 5 & 12. Via Zoom. Join Episcopalians around Colorado in a conversation about the Doctrine of Discovery. We will be learning the history of the Doctrine of Discovery, which shaped how early explorers and settlers viewed this land when they arrived and how it continues to impact us today. There will be opportunities for small group conversations as well as opportunities to talk about what we can do with this knowledge as Christians who inherited this legacy. Please consider having a small group from your congregation join you in this conversation. This is not limited to Episcopalians; anyone who registers may join the conversation. This conversation will be guided using materials from the Coalition to Dismantle the Doctrine of Discovery and is being facilitated by the Rev. Rebecca Crummey, Vicar at St. Peter and St. Mary Episcopal Church in Denver and member of Indigenous Allies. Register Now!
