This is Native Land

A poster I create for theĀ HONOR NATIVE LAND campaign byĀ U.S. Department of Arts and Culture:

We call on all individuals and organizations to open public events and gatherings with acknowledgment of the traditional Native inhabitants of the land.

Acknowledgment is a simple, powerful way of showing respect and a step toward correcting the stories and practices that erase Indigenous peopleā€™s history and culture and toward inviting and honoring the truth. Imagine this practice widely adopted: imagine cultural venues, classrooms, conference settings, places of worship, sports stadiums, and town halls, acknowledging traditional lands. Millions would be exposedā€”many for the first timeā€”to the names of the traditional Indigenous inhabitants of the lands they are on, inspiring them to ongoing awareness and action.

You can download this poster and customize it to reflect the tribe whose land you are on.Ā  There are 8.5″x11″ and 11″x17″ sizes available.
