Seeking Truth, Healing, and Right Relationship: Quakers and the Legacy of Indian Boarding Schools

May 25, 2022 @ 5:30 pm CDT

Friends Committee on National Legislation (FCNL) and Friends advocate in solidarity with Indigenous peoples.

Join on Weds. May 25 at 6:30 p.m. EDT to learn how FCNL and F/friends are reckoning with this history and advocating in solidarity with Native communities.
