Where I am based is on the original homelands of the Mashpee Wampanoag, Aquinnah Wampanoag, Nipmuc, and the Massachusetts tribal nations. I acknowledge the painful history of genocide and forced removal from this territory, and I honor and respect the many diverse Indigenous peoples still connected to this land on which I gather - past, present and future. I invite you to join me in acknowledging all of this as our shared responsibility: to make good of this time, and for each of us to consider our roles in reconciliation, decolonization and allyship.
