Congratulations!”

Indigenous Land Acknowledgement

The State of Michigan occupies the ancestral, traditional and contemporary lands of the Anishinaabek - Three Fires Confederacy, the Odawa (Ottawa), Ojibwa (Chippewa), and Bode’wadmi (Potawatomi). The Michigan Democratic Party recognizes historic Indigenous communities in Michigan, and those who were forcibly removed from their homelands.  We further recognize the ongoing relationship of dependence upon, and respect for, all living beings of earth, sky and water.  In offering this land acknowledgement we affirm Indigenous sovereignty, history and experiences.
