In this issue of Faith Meets Justice, read about the response of Red Cloud Indian School ([link removed]) to the recent mass grave discoveries at Indigenous boarding schools and about ongoing work for truth and healing at Red Cloud.

Then, check out a Q&A with the author of The Spiritual Work of Racial Justice, ([link removed]) and dive into environmental and immigration issues with a reflection on biodiversity ([link removed]) , an Examen ([link removed]) focused on the effects of climate change, and a piece from ISN's José Arnulfo Cabrera on passing legislation that provides a pathway to citizenship ([link removed]) for DACA recipients, TPS holders, farmworkers, and essential workers.
