Land Acknowledgement

We would like to acknowledge that the land we are meeting on today has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples. 

Specifically, in the area of Boise, Idaho (US), we acknowledge the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Shoshone, Bannock, and Northern Paiute people.

We honor and respect the diverse Indigenous peoples connected to this territory on which we gather. We encourage each participant to increase their awareness of the historical and current realities of indigenous peoples in their local community.
