Peace and Social Concerns Committee will thinking about reparations<\/strong> for the next few months, and we\u2019d like to invite the wider Durham Meeting community to join us. How can we, as a nation, as a state, as an organization begin to make amends for the tremendous injustices done by slavery and colonization? What would we want reparations to accomplish? What form might they take? What is enough to address these injustices?<\/p>\n\n\n\n To help us think about these questions we will be posting videos and readings on the website over the next 8 weeks. In the fall we will host a conversation to share our reactions to the readings and consider how we might answer the call for reparations. We encourage you to take notes as you read, highlighting important ideas and interesting approaches.
