Northwoods Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, August 23, 2013
Today something has come up regarding the efforts we were making on repudiation of the Doctrine of Discovery some time ago. As you may recall, as part of the Resolution activities on native American issues and DOD, we worked with Wayne Leeds at GRUUF on an educational CD on the history of DOD to be presented over station KAXE in Grand Rapids. This was last fall, a year ago.....now the Mesabi UUs have requested from the author, Gail Forsyte-Vail, permission to use it at a service up in Virginia. Gail works at the UUA in Boston, and prepared this video for the general assembly in Phoenix. She kindly gave us permission to use the audio part of this on our CD. But now, as a result of Jeanne's request for use of the CD, Gail sent us a link to the new revised video they are just making, and gave Jeanne at Mesabi, permission to use it. I will try to get a direct address for viewing this, and think the UUA will be putting it out either on their website or youtube very soon.....this whole project of ours had sort of faded from notice and was on the back burner; but like the pebble dropped in the pool, the ripples continue....
Respectfully submitted, Mary DeYoung, News Director
