Kalapuya Land Acknowledgment
I acknowledge that we are on occupied lands, and acknowledge my deep respect and extreme gratitude for Kalapuya and all Tribal Nations of Oregon and the important contributions they continue to make to their communities, to this precious land, and to all of us. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I recognize that a land acknowledgement is only one small step in the work that needs to be done to promote Indigenous visibility, reparations, and empowerment. I am here for it.
