Doctrine of Christian Discovery

by Good Faith Media + Syracuse University + Indigenous Values Initiative

The podcast explores how a centuries-old Christian doctrine encouraged conquest and colonization of non-Christians -- and how its legacies still affect various lands and peoples. The Doctrine of Christian Discovery podcast was produced during the “Religious Origins of White Supremacy: Johnson v. M'Intosh and the Doctrine of Christian Discovery" conference in December 2023 at Syracuse University in New York. The podcast is pitched to students and others beginning their exploration of the Doctrine of Christian Discovery. The producers acknowledge with respect the Onondaga Nation, firekeepers of the Haudenosaunee, the Indigenous people on whose ancestral lands Syracuse University now stands. May the information you glean from this podcast motivate you to uphold Indigenous values, protect Mother Earth and honor Indigenous treaties. The producers would like to thank the sponsors who made this podcast possible.
