From being displaced from their home centuries ago to the vast health inequities brought to light during the COVID pandemic, the indigenous people of Massachusetts have experienced and continue to experience a number of grave injustices. The members of the Indigenous Justice Working Group share what draws them to this work and raise ideas about how we at First Parish might learn about, acknowledge, and confront these injustices in order to heal and move forward together toward a more just future.
