CITY OF IOWA CITY COUNCIL ACTION REPORT November 2, 2023 Ad Hoc Truth & Reconciliation Commission: October 25 Attachments: Ad Hoc Truth & Reconciliation Commission: October 25 October 25, 2023 Draft Ad Hoc Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Minutes Assembly Room, Iowa City Senior Center Commissioners present: Chastity Dillard, Lauren Merritt, Wangui Gathua, Louis Tassinary, Chad Simmons, Marie Krebs. Commissioners not present: Eric Harris, Sikowis Nobiss, Clif Johnson. Staff present: Redmond Jones, Stefanie Bowers. Meeting called to order: 5:22 PM. Reading of Land Acknowledgement: Dillard read the Land Acknowledgement. Consider Recommendation to Remove Ad Hoc Truth & Reconciliation Commissioner: Dillard moved, and Gathua seconded to recommend to the City Council the removal of Eric Harris due to three unexcused absences per the by-laws section 4 article E. The motion passed 5-0. (Simmons was not present for the vote). Truth-Telling: The Native Partners did a welcome and grounding. Think Peace went over public hearings of a truth and reconciliation commission (TRC). The key objective of a truth process is to protect the rights of persons who were harmed. Some truth commissions work behind closed doors to provide confidentiality for persons testifying. The objectives of a TRC cannot be secured without the support of communities. The public can assist during educational outreach or a media strategy. Hearings for institutions are one type of public hearing. These are hearings for persons who were harmed and focused on cases. Public hearings should be in a space that provides a safe platform to honor persons who were harmed and create opportunities for constructive engagement and dialogue from the public. The approach for hearings should be survivor-centered to ensure appropriate protection and avoid new harms. Commissioners worked in pairs to identify truth-telling norms and roles and then reported to the group. The Native Partners provided closing reflections. The meeting was adjourned at 9:08 PM.
