Center for Reconciliation and Justice’s Symposium: Service and Action
In much of human history, the voices and lives of one group of people deemed to be “lesser” by another were often suppressed, even erased. As a result of this unresolved humanitarian transgression, which continues today, local (or traditional) knowledge, values, beliefs, and expressions have been greatly diminished or lost.
In the 2025 Center for Reconciliation and Justice’s Symposium, we invite the university community and general public to examine how best to restore and honor the traditional knowledge, cultural expressions, and dignity of marginalized people and communities.
Come here the cry of the Earth, the poor, and the many marginalized voices from across this country. Our session, Back to the Future: Learning from Indigenous Knowledge on Ethics and Sustainability, will be held on Wednesday, February 5th from 2:00-3:30pm in UNH Ahmanson Auditorium. We will feature:
- Trevor Zink
- Mercedes Dorame
- Robert Dorame
- Jeff Theis
