520    "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"--|cProvided
