Law and culture. Culture and law. Which comes first, and how are they related? CELDF and partners hosted Truth, Reckoning, and Right Relationship with the Great Lakes Part 1 ( • Part 1 - Truth & Recko... ) in the fall of 2023 to wrestle with these questions.
On April 22 and 23, 2024, many of the doctors, lawyers, Indigenous activists, educators, students, religious practitioners, artists, environmental regulators, and community activists - young and old - returned to Cleveland, along with many new participants from an expanded area to reconvene for Part 2 at moCa Cleveland.

This powerful compilation video of this two-day gathering not only reflects and grounds us in the truths revealed during Part 1 but then expands further to gain a better understanding to reckon with some hard truths. The attendees moved forward through exploration and connection exercises and workshops, all moving towards right relationship with the Great Lakes, Nature, and each other. This video provides a window into what it will take individually and collectively to change culture and our behavior to create a better world.
Through funding from people like you our Truth, Reckoning, and Right Relationship (TRRR) with the Great Lakes, Nature, and Each Other gathering came together and inspired many. With Andrea Bowers' powerful art on the walls and an open and welcoming space at moCa, it was an inviting space to make connections to continue to build the healthy, sustainable communities for future generations within the Great Lakes watersheds and ecosystems envisioned by residents.
