Think critically about land acknowledgements. While it is important to understand the history of the land you are on and the people who were here first, a statement about history alone is rarely useful to Native peoples. Land acknowledgements should be a first step toward restorative measures and efforts to strengthen Indigenous sovereignty.
Support treaties and land repatriation efforts. Learn about local, state, and federal political initiatives that affect Native peoples, and support measures to enforce current treaties and restore landownership to Indigenous nations.
