Kawaiisu

This land is the traditional territory of the Kawaiisu. Land acknowledgements are a way people insert an awareness of Indigenous presence and land rights into everyday life, often at the beginning of ceremonies, lectures, or education guides. They offer an explicit yet limited way to recognize the history of colonialism and first nations, as well as a need for change in settler-colonial societies. The Native Lands map is intended for educational purposes, is imperfect, and does not represent official or legal boundaries of Indigenous nations; definitive boundaries should be obtained from the nation.
