Environmental Justice Ministry Group
The Environmental Justice Ministry Group is a faith-based group that examines, increases awareness, and acts around the most pressing problems of climate change and environmental justice.
To honor Indigenous Peoples' Day, we will view a film created by Janine Tinsley-Roe, Shinnecock enrolled tribal leader, Episcopal Church National Missioner, activist, spiritual healer and mental health professional, and Thom Hoffman, filmmaker.
The film is Shinnecock: 12 thousand years in the making. Shinnecock travels the time-line of life in North America from the journeys across the Bering Strait thousands of years ago to the first cultures to develop on the east coast. The story continues through the loss of Native environments and their growing dependence on European colonists. The film concludes with the revitalization of Native culture and their collective determination to survive as a people and to sustain stewardship of our planet. Hear Tinsley Roe comment on her film.
All are welcome.
