Land & Labor Acknowledgement + Actions

We understand that our efforts towards healing our communities, lands, and oceans are inextricably bound to Indigenous sovereignty and Black liberation movements.

The work of our organization is based on Ohlone land in San Francisco, CA. This land was stolen from the Ohlone people native to this region, and their descendants continue to experience ongoing settler colonialism. We ask that you visit and join us in contributing to the Sogorea Te Land Trust, an urban Indigenous women-led land trust based in the San Francisco Bay Area that facilitates the return of Indigenous land to Indigenous people. We pay Shumi Land Tax and dedicate an additional portion of our annual revenue to support the land trust.

Additionally, we believe Black Lives Matter and we recognize the trauma and the contributions of Africans who were enslaved and their descendants who remain, along with Indigenous peoples, the original and ongoing innovators, architects, and cultural wisdom keepers of our society. We support national, state, and municipal reparation efforts to begin to address the fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality, and inhumanity of slavery and the ongoing impact of these forces on living African-Americans in the United States.
