I can’t help noting that Holy Trinity Lutheran church in Minneapolis just contributed $250,000 to the Indian Land Tenure foundation, and the PCUSA is building an organization to help congregations engage in restorative financial action.

Finally some predominantly white religious communities engaged in concrete action!

Restorative justice as a process is increasingly being drawn on in abolitionist movements and school systems. Here’s an interesting research study that asks about possible interdependent and interactive work between gender violence and restorative justice.

This website, powered by bookshop.org, has a lovely webpage full of books in various categories by Native authors.

The Othering & Belonging Institute at UC-Berkeley just released a short video offering clear definitions of various forms of racism (institutional, systemic, structural).

Faith&Prejudice, an institution devoted to “unite the Church across races and denominations to confront and dismantle systemic racism in America” has made available its small group curriculum for free. A series of videos, handouts, and other tools.

Here’s a useful and concise list of principles for embodying anti-racist community-engaged pedagogies.
