Please consider taking actions to support Native Americans.
Donate to the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, an urban Indigenous women-led land trust based in the San Francisco Bay Area that facilitates the rematriation of Indigenous land to Indigenous people.
“Rematriate: to restore a people to their rightful place in sacred relationship with their ancestral land.”
“The Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology at UC Berkeley stores one of the country’s largest collections of Native American remains and funerary objects.”
Write an email or start a change.org campaign for expediting the return of remains and cultural
objects. By Federal and State law, UC Berkeley is required to engage in a process of repatriation.
As of November 2023, UC Berkeley reported still having the remains of at least 4,900 Native Americans that it has not made available for return to tribes, the 4th largest collection of unrepatriated Native American remains in the U.S.
Donate to the Indigenous Peyote Conservation Initiative, which supports an ecological and cultural harvest that strengthens indigenous sovereignty and medicine pathways, for all peyote peoples across the Americas.
Your contribution will support indigenous communities leading the path towards regenerative, respectful, and healing relationships with the medicine and strengthen indigenous sovereignty as traditional medicine keepers.
“Ritual use of Peyote has been part of Indigenous identity throughout the Americas for thousands of years, serving as a form of cultural connectivity and communal healing.”
