Paperback. This text is a platform for the clear, urgent and much-needed voices of Indigenous peoples to expose the climate catastrophe through which we are living. These voices can inspire and challenge a common witness to bring change and transformation.The contributors are uniquely and all too painfully placed to speak to the realities of the onslaught of climate change; the systemic violence of land loss, racism, poverty, and human rights violations; and the continuing legacies of colonization. These issues continue to disproportionately affect Indigenous peoples amongst all peoples.The messages shared in this volume continue the tradition of Indigenous peoples in the ecumenical movement. They remind churches of our vital role in bringing change, and also of our responsibilities for the sins and structures that our unity must dismantle if it is to be a credible witness against the legacies and practices of colonialism today. This text is a platform for the clear, urgent and much-needed voices of Indigenous peoples to expose the climate catastrophe through which we are living. These voices can inspire and challenge a common witness to bring change and transformation.
