This is so valuable, Verena, thanks for this insight. As I am seeing the work is important both from an organizational statement, but also what is our own personal path.
I find this so interesting and am going to dwell on it. This was an effort I tried to get going here during the OEGlobal 23 conference (but likely got lost in the many places people were attending to) where we asked people to share what the land where they are from means to them. And then a followup, to ask what they knew of the ancestral people also made that place home
That was interesting as I have no recollection of even being taught anything about the Eastern US location I grew up in, and I went down my usual internet exploration holes of discovery but also connected to story of my neighborhood that I wish now I had explored more.
Oh, I did come across a UBC resource on Video Resources for Virtual Land Acknowledgements
