Quaker Earthcare Witness ~ Native North Americans

Quaker Earthcare Witness has often invited native peoples to participate in our programs as we have met in different regions of North America . We have done this in the belief that resources for restoring the earth may be found in the storehouse of Earth wisdom of many traditional cultures.

This outreach was inspired in part by the examples of early American Quakers, such as William Penn and John Woolman, who felt a “near sympathy” as they tried to be compassionate and fair their dealings with native Americans. But recent overtures have focused more on what we have to learn from themabout care of mother Earth.
