2023 Series: “Building Relationships, Building Equity: Acknowledging the Continuing Wampanoag Presence on Cape Cod”

All events are free.

"America" was built upon European contact and and the imposed colonization of Indigenous people.  These processes must be recognized and acknowledged for the history of this country to ever be understood in rightful context, or to develop a culture of balance, peace and respect. Understanding Wampanoag narrative and culture is part of the foundation to uplift outcomes for healthier communities on Cape Cod and the Islands. This series of events will help to make intentional efforts to address disparities in the greater community.

The MLK Action Team of Nauset Interfaith is excited to announce this series of events.
