Join us for a delightful afternoon of good food and engaging conversations about local art and history!
Order ahead from Sweet Bella @ The MATT or bring your own lunch to enjoy.
Join guest speaker James Coppa, educator at the Institute for American Indian Studies and graduate student at Hartford International University, for a look at how early U.S. courts weaponized theology to justify Native land theft and displacement. Explore how legal rulings shaped definitions of religious freedom and human rights, and why centering Indigenous perspectives on the law is essential as the U.S. celebrates 250 years.
