Solidarity with Indigenous Peoples Pilgrimage

Date: April 8-12, 2025

Cost: $950, plus travel to and from Yakima, Washington

Become better acquainted with Indigenous Peoples, their connection to the land upon which we live, and the settler colonial history that is antagonistic to their culture, spirituality, and way of life.

You and your community are invited to explore contemporary Indigenous realities, histories of Indigenous Peoples, and histories of Indigenous-settler relations. What might it mean for your community to stand in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples and work towards repair?

In this experience, you will be hosted by the Coalition to Dismantle the Doctrine of Discovery, with executive director Sarah Augustine, on the homeland of the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation (Yakama Indian Reservation). 

The goal of a pilgrim is not to solve but to search, not so much to help as to be present.

– From The “Practice of Pilgrimage” by Emmanuel Katongole and Chris Rice, Reconciling All Things, 2008.
