Although made with North America in mind, wherever there has been hegemonic colonization, it is appropriate to recognize the indigenous peoples who previously occupied, since time immemorial, the land we now live on. A land acknowledgement can be one powerful and meaningful way to do this, provided it is done respectfully. This video presentation was put together by some members of the Society of St Vincent de Paul in Canada for its local members, but the main principles set out can be universally applied and used for any civic, commercial or social gathering on what was previously indigenous land or territory.
