#56 Mark Charles on the Doctrine of Discovery
Mark Charles is the son of a Navajo man and a woman of Dutch heritage. He is a speaker and writer focused on forging a path of healing and conciliation in the United States by fostering a deeper understanding of American history regarding race, culture, and faith. Currently, much of his emphasis is on the Doctrine of Discovery and how it has shaped the foundations of our nation. He is currently writing a book about the Doctrine of Discovery with Dr. Soong-Chan Rah. After living on the Navajo reservation with his wife and three children for over a decade, Mark and his family moved to Washington, D.C. where he serves as the correspondent for Native News Online. He continues to write at http://wirelesshogan.blogspot.com. In this episode of the RePlacing Church Podcast, part one of a two part conversation, he joins me to discuss:
What the Doctrine of Discovery is and how it has shaped the foundations of the United States
How the church’s complicity with the empire led to the Doctrine of Discovery
What white trauma is and how it manifests itself
Why white america can’t fix racism
Why Racial “Conciliation” is a more appropriate term than Racial Reconciliation
