Join Doylestown Friends for their Fourth Sunday Forum, March 27th at 11:30 am. Meeting member Arla Patch will be speaking about Native American History and Quakers.
We live on land that was once inhabited by the Lenni Lenape, who were displaced by the Quakers and other religious groups that settled Pennsylvania. With 98% population depletion since first contact, and a 500-year history of genocide, Native Americans are still suffering the impact of our invasion.
Doylestown Meeting member, Arla Patch, of CNA Coalition of Natives and Allies, works to increase understanding of Native American history through many projects, which she’ll tell us about in our upcoming forum. Arla will lead a discussion and answer questions after we watch her take the voice of a colonizer in a 20-minute presentation on our region's Native American history recorded at Princeton University.
