Indigenous Boarding Schools
As follow-up to our workshop with Paula Palmer on Quaker involvement in Indigenous Boarding Schools, our committee asks Monthly Meetings to consider becoming “Affiliate Members” of the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition.
Additionally, we encourage individuals and Monthly Meetings to write or call their elected representatives asking them to support the establishment of the “Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act.”
This request comes directly from Native communities, and FCNL is amplifying it through their action page that will allow you to personalize and send a message to your Senators and Congressional Representative through the FCNL website.
