Readers Theatre has become an important medium for delivering historical facts associated with colonization.  Through dramatic readings of actual narrative from historical materials the people and social systems that formed, carried out, fought against, and fell victim to forces of structural oppression are brought to life.  In “The Great Hurt” the focus is on the boarding school period affecting American Indians. Discussion following the performance will focus what is helpful and/or needed on the journey of healing.

Event is free and open to the public. For information contact 218-723-5981
