The implications for indigenous peoples also include: realization of the virtues of cross-cultural influences; appreciation of the values of other cultures as accruing to the wealth of human experience and the freedom of all to share in such values without necessarily giving up their respective identities’ avoidance of parochial attitudes which degenerate into ethnic and cultural prejudices’ and, above all, appreciation of the necessity to maintain a global perspective within which the particulars of indigenous expression can find an enduring context…” -Universal House of Justice 5.

Knifewing - “Step out into the Light” (One Spirit, Two Worlds) (00:37:27-00:40:00) Roman Orona (Host) (00:40:00-00:41:04) “Concerning indigenous rights, it stands to reason that indigenous people are entitled to all the human rights accorded other peoples. For example, they should be guaranteed the full rights of citizenship, and all acts of discriminations against them, which may have developed over the years, should be eliminated. At the same time, it would be unseemly for the demands for their rights to make, on the basis of their indigenousness, a special claim to exclusive rights and privileges which exceed the necessity to redress injustices…” -Universal House of Justice 10.
