Fri, May 7, 2021
Time: 6 p.m.
Speaker: Sheri Hostetler
How the Past Has Shaped Our Present Moment: Understanding the Doctrine of Discovery and its Impact on Indigenous People and Creation
Sheri Hostetler will be presenting a session on understanding the Doctrine of Discovery. This presentation will make connections between present-day racial justice and climate change/ecological devastation through the lens of the Doctrine of Discovery and its 500-year history of church-sanctioned colonization. This history will include points of connection to Mennonite history as well.
Sheri Hostetler has been the lead pastor at First Mennonite Church of San Francisco for 20 years. She co-founded the Dismantling the Doctrine of Discovery Coalition in 2014. The Coalition seeks to activate a movement of Anabaptist people of faith to dismantle the laws and policies that have legalized the theft of land and resources from Indigenous Peoples across the world.
