βWhose Land Is This?β
Sunday, October 9, 10:50 am, Worship Service Livestream
Woody Guthrie sang, βThis land is your land, this land is my land, from California to the Gulf Stream waters.β Yet Indigenous Peoplesβ Day, observed on the second Monday of October (but not as a holiday), suggests that we acknowledge the unceded rights of this continentβs first peoples. Doing so might even shed light on some of our societyβs deepest problems. John Buehrens is both our past Senior Minister and a former President of the UUA. He will also reflect on his recent visit to Alaska, where descendants of the Inuit, Aleut, Athabascan, Tlingit, and other peoples constitute 22% of the population.
