They’re fucking passive. They should directly implicate the US. Instead of “We are on unceded land of the Salish people” we should say “The US government stole this land from the Salish people and genocided their tribe”

I mean if you’re org is doing land acknowledgements then it’s free to say them as aggressively as they want. Or even better, actually do something about it. For us the passive language came from the local first nation itself so I’m not really gonna question it. I’ve always read the request to do land acknowledgments as “In case of revolution, we call dibs”.
