INDIGENOUS LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We humbly acknowledge that the land on which the Pembroke-Hopkins Park [PHP] community resides is the unceded territory and home of the Potawatomi (Pah-tah-wah-toh-mee) Nation, as well as the Odawa (ah-doh-wah), and Ojibwe (oh-jeeb-wah) Nations-- the Three Fires Confederacy.  For thousands of years the PHP area was a site of strategic planning, trade, travel, and healing for other Native tribes and later, for African-Americans escaping the brutalities of the Slave Trade and Jim Crow eras. We inherit what they preserved... The CDC wishes to continue to honor and steward this great gift of land and forward it to the next seven generations and beyond.
