A Footnote

Our recent conversations in racial awareness often appear to note only two of the groups that make up the great salad bowl of American culture.  On this combined Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples' Day, we demonstrate that not only are there more than two racial groups in the U.S., but we as a congregation participate in the broadening conversation by being the only parish in the diocese that currently employs a [card-carrying] Tribal-American [aka "Native American"].  To that we can only say, "Niá:wen ki’ wáhi".
