Native American Worldview: A Conversation between Dr. Tink Tinker and Dr. Lisa Dellinger, Tinker Visiting Professor

Virtual via Zoom

In well-meaning white (mostly) institutions, it has become a standard practice that land acknowledgment is invoked in every event, and the discussion about or the demand for LandBack is publicly made. Many assume that such is a step toward improving white institutions, solving settler colonialism, and reconciling with the Native people. However, Drs. Tinker and Dellinger warn that such discussions can deteriorate into sessions alleviating christian guilt, and maintaining the status quo. Dr. Tinker has argued that &quot;the Native worldview and christianity cannot be reconciled because they were never “conciled” in the first place, so there is no state of conciliation to go back to (reconciliation).” Then all of us, the settler population, wonder what we can do? This conversation between Drs. Tinker and Dellinger offers you an opportunity to deep listening to them, and invites you to learn from them with cultural humility first.&quot;
