LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which the ANTHEM campaign exists in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.” Now, we “Africadians” include multiple African diasporas as well as mixed-race progeny, whose DNA is both cosmopolitan and truly indigenous—due to Cherokee and/or Mi’kmaw admixture, thus creating the “Afro-Métis.” |
