The Land We’re on: Land Acknowledgement
Settlers of Chicago colonized the traditional unceded homelands of the Council of the Three Fires:
The Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations.
Many other tribes, such as the Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, and Sac and Fox, also called this area home.
We need to protect and honor the history and people of these places. Indigenous people are not relics of the past.
They are still here, and continue to demonstrate their talents and gifts amidst a backdrop of ongoing colonialism and oppression.
Land acknowledgment is only one small part of supporting Indigenous communities.
I hope our land acknowledgment statement will inspire others to stand in solidarity with Native nations.
Solidarity can look like:
+Donating time and money to Indigenous-led organizations.
+Amplifying the voices of Indigenous people leading grassroots change movements.
+Returning land.
