Earlier in 2015, Pope Francis announced the canonization of Father Junipero Serra, the principal architect of the Spanish California Mission System (1769-1831). Serra is well-known for overseeing the mission system and establishing brutally harsh policies directed at Indigenous peoples and their respective First Nations prior to the emergence of Alta California; thus resulting in various forms of genocide. Contrary to the mythology taught in the California Public School System and Missions themselves (as tourist sites), 12 (non) Indigenous people from various segments of societies (community leaders, activist, Christians, etc...) speak on the international ramifications and oppositions of canonizing Father Junipero Serra by Pope Francis.

De discussie -dag werd georganiseerd door de Barbareno Chumash Council in samenwerking met de American Indian Movement (AIM) van Zuid California
Eerder dit jaar heeft paus Franciscus de heiligverklaring aangekondigd van Vader Junipero Serra, de voornaamste architect van het Spaans Californië missiesysteem ( 1769-1831).
Van Serra is het welbekend dat hij toezicht hield op het missiesysteem en een brutaal en hardhandig beleid voerde tegen de inheemse volkeren en hun respectievelijke First Nations; dat resulteerde in verschillende vormen van genocide.
Strijdig met de mythologie die onderwezen wordt in het California Public School systeem en de missies zelf, spreken 12 (niet) inheemsen uit verschillende lagen van de gemeenschappen ( leiders van gemeenschappen, activisten, Christenen, enz.) over de internationale aspecten en oppositie van de heiligverklaring.
