Honor the Indigenous History of the Land on Which You Stand #TheBodyRemembers

I’m moved by seeing so many non-Natives posting Indigenous land acknowledgements today. It’s good medicine.

I’m in ancestral treaty lands on the Lake Traverse Reservation in SD, home of the Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota of the Oceti Sakowin (Great Sioux Nation) #TheBodyRemembers

As I gather with family today in Compton, I stand on land of the Tongva nation.

My house is warm with the smell of cozy foods in the oven and the overwhelming feeling of thankfulness for so much. But, this is also a time to acknowledge the history of this holiday. My home sits on Seminole + Tequesta land. #TheBodyRemembers

Today, my family will gather together on Osage, Miami, and Sioux land.

Enjoy the love and joy that this day hopefully brings to you-but never forget, and never let those you love forget, on whose land we stand.

❤️✊🏾

Indigenous people are not gone-they are still here, shepherding the land and society, in so many ways often unnoticed and unacknowledged.

May today be a day to start to truly listen, learn, and take ACTION of solidarity in the ways our Native family directs us.

❤️✊🏾
