Living Land Acknowledgement

Living Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that we are located in Lenapehoking, the unceded territory of the Lenape people. 

We further acknowledge that stories of the purchase of this land were lies told to cover up the systematic genocide of the Lenape people.

Despite this genocide, the Lenape are a living people whose culture and wisdom we continue to learn from. 

It is our individual responsibility to consistently recommit ourselves to the liberation of marginalized people.

Until we acknowledge the atrocities of the past, we cannot walk together into the future.

 

This Land Acknowledgement was created in partnership with the Lenape Center who guide us as we bring this acknowledgement into action. Visit Native-Land.ca to learn more.
