What Year Does the Map Represent?

By Victor Temprano

Wednesday, December 20th, 2017

Does time really matter on maps? Of course it does. But how you map time depends on the purpose of your map.

Thanks for visiting Native Land! Please get in touch with us anytime with your questions or comments.

We are ALL on native land. We encourage independen $We are ALL on native land. We encourage independent research and collaboration with the original stewards of our shared land through land acknowledgment, education and shared mandate. This post supports our previous one regarding victorious fracking ban of the Delaware River Basin. 🍃 A little about the Indigenous peoples of the land: Lənape Haki-nk (Lenni-Lenape) "The Lenape people are the original inhabitants of Delaware, New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania, and Southern New York. For over 10,000 years they have been the caretakers of these lands and of The River of Human Beings, more commonly known as the Delaware River. The Lenape were the first tribe to sign a treaty with the United States and the first tribe to have land set aside for them in New Jersey." - source https://www.lenape-nation.org/ More sources can be found through a search on the our website.

This is Lenni Lenape land. ~ the Greater Delaware $This is Lenni Lenape land. ~ the Greater Delaware River watershed from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, up along the Hudson River, to the Susquehanna River and down through parts of the Delmarva Peninsula (Maryland / Virginia areas). In more than 1,500 years of human settlement, the Delaware River has known many names. The Lenni Lenape, who were settled in the Delaware Valley by 600 CE, called it Pautaxat, Mariskitton, Makerishkisken, Lenape and Whittuck. EVERYONE can + should be stewards of the land - respect to all who fought to end fracking in this territory. ✊🏾 Reposted from • @nrdc_org A momentous victory! 🎉 Fracking is now *banned* in the Delaware River Basin! Fracking is a dangerous activity that threatens public health and our environment, and fuels the #ClimateCrisis. The historic vote by the @DRBC1961 signals a strong stance in favor of a #FossilFuelFree future.

One of the Native Land mandates is to put Indigenous Voices first.

We've played with a few strategies to establish this and are now entering the next phase through promotion, celebration and education of our culture, language, history and decolonized future-forward goals as Indigenous Peoples.

As an Indigenous-led non-profit organization, we’re working daily to expand and further develop the digital map of Indigenous Territories around the globe.

Our team has grown, our systems have evolved and we are looking at the future with bold intentions. 
Join us LIVE every week as we share Indigenous Voices in conversations of language, arts, decolonized practices, land stewardship, elder stories, educational resources and so much more!

The question we put forward is:

How can you respectfully stay connected to the land you are on?

Beginning this week!

Welcome to our new series:  
AMPLIFYING INDIGENOUS VOICES
