Acknowledgement:

To start orienting you to the Twin Cities, we must acknowledge that the conference is taking place on stolen land first inhabited by Oneota, Iowa, and Dakota peoples. It feels particularly important to name that the site of our conference is very near Bdote. Bdote is the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, which Dakota tribes hold as their place of creation and origin. Fort Snelling, which the U.S. government built on the bluff overlooking Bdote, was used as a concentration camp for Dakota people by the U.S. government following the Dakota War of 1862. After that period of imprisonment, Dakota tribes were forcibly moved to reservations in other Midwestern states. We acknowledge the Dakota as the historic, current, and future guardians of the area where the conference will be held. Despite the attempted genocide of indigenous peoples, members of Dakota and other Native tribes remain vital members of the Twin Cities community. Minneapolis was the birthplace of AIM (the American Indian Movement) in 1968, and remains the home of activists, artists, and healers from several tribal nations. While in the Twin Cities, we encourage you to seek out the Native American Cultural Corridor in South Minneapolis; educate yourself about the Red Lake Nation's leadership in decolonizing mental health; and/or seek out other Native creators.
