"Find Out Whose Land You're On": Discovering Our Native American Predecessors

"Find Out Whose Land You're On" 
This App Can Tell You The Indigenous History Of The Land You Live On

Chelsey Luger “I’M WRITING THIS from our offices on traditional Suquamish lands, stewards of this beautiful Pacific Northwest island for thousands of years.” That’s a “land acknowledgement.” Lately I’ve been reading more stories about the many schools and other institutions in Australia and Canada that begin the day with such statements. It’s a simple, formal way to pay tribute to the original inhabitants of the land—and to their descendants who are still here. Victor Temprano created NativeLands.ca to make it easy for people in North America to do it. Just type in your zip code and see whose land you’re on. Then tell everyone. Tracy Matsue Loeffelholz, editorial director P.S. We’re hiring! Check out our open positions and help spread the word.
