To clerks of monthly meetings and worship groups in South Central Yearly Meeting,
At the Representatives' Meeting on November 20, 2016, the Meeting directed the Clerk to write to the President and other relevant authorities about Meeting's concern for the rights of indigenous peoples and human and civil rights of the Water Protectors at Standing Rock, North Dakota.
I have now sent this letter as directed and am sharing it with the Yearly Meeting through all of you. Please share as you are led.
