Arizona 101

Land Acknowledgement

We humbly acknowledge that the land on which our organization resides in Tempe, Arizona, is an integral part of the ancient homeland and traditional territory of the O’odham Jeweḍ, Hohokam, and Akimel O’odham (Upper Pima) peoples.

With deep respect, we honor their rich history, enduring struggles, invaluable contributions, and remarkable resilience in shaping this world.

We are committed to fostering a lasting reverence for these indigenous peoples—both those who have come before us and those who will follow in the future.

We invite everyone to join us in cultivating a deeper understanding of the land we inhabit and the diverse cultures that have thrived upon it. Let us strive to learn and appreciate the stories and wisdom rooted in the very ground beneath our feet. Learn about the land you live on.
