Unsettling Truths: The Ongoing, Dehumanizing Legacy of the Doctrine of Discovery

By Soong-Chan Rah and Mark Charles

Book Overview

You cannot discover lands already inhabited. In this prophetic blend of history, theology, and cultural commentary, Mark Charles and Soong-Chan Rah reveal the damaging effects of the "Doctrine of Discovery," which institutionalized American triumphalism and white supremacy. This book calls our nation and churches to a truth-telling that will expose past injustices and open the door to conciliation and true community.
