For non-Indigenous communities, a land acknowledgment is a powerful way of showing respect and honoring the Indigenous Peoples of the land on which we live and work. Land acknowledgments are just one part of a wider project of restitution, justice, and reparations that resist the erasure of Indigenous histories and bring awareness to Indigenous presence. It recognizes and respects that Indigenous Peoples as the traditional land stewards and the enduring relationship between them and the land. Land acknowledgments do not exist in a past tense, or historical context, however, it needs to be coupled with authentic relationship and informed action.
