Land Acknowledgement
The Leventhal Map & Education Center stands on land that was once a water-based ecosystem that provided for the Massachusett, Wampanoag, Pawtucket, and Nipmuc people who lived in or moved through the Greater Boston area. We acknowledge these Indigenous people, the theft of their lands and other devastating and violent acts of settler colonialism on their communities, and their vibrant contemporary presence.
