*Oregon is sited upon the ancestral homelands <https://native-land.ca/> of
more than a dozen Indigenous Nations. Land acknowledgements recognize and
respect the enduring relationship that Indigenous People have with their
traditional homelands. The effects of colonization can still be felt today
and land acknowledgements are a small step down the path of repair,
reconciliation and cultural revitalization. *
