Yesterday, I joined the CA Tribal Chairpersons’ Association at the Tribal Leaders Forum to kick off the 58th Annual #CANativeAmericanDay.
CA is home to 109 tribes whose rich cultures, traditions, & contributions shape our state. Today & everyday, we celebrate their heritage & honor their legacy.
CalConservation joined @canaturalresources.bsky.social & other state partners at the State Capitol for the 58th #CaNativeAmericanDay!
Visitors met our Tribal Liaisons, Crystal Blue (Miwok/Nisenan) & Amilia Bryan, & learned about grants + our work with #CaliforniaTribes.
"The Los Angeles basin is the center of the Tongva world. For the Chumash, Tataviam, Serrano, and Acjachemen, the Los Angeles region is a critical part of their territories..." @ucpress.bsky.social: www.ucpress.edu/books/we-are... #CANativeAmericanDay

California Native American Day celebrates the extensive history of many tribes, their enduring legacy, & educates people about misconceptions of CA Indians. CA Native American Day supports greater understanding and respect for all California Native Americans. #CANativeAmericanDay

#CANativeAmericanDay honors tribes across the #GoldenState. While it's a day of celebration, it's also focused on the struggles #NativeAmericans have faced. Let's celebrate the irreplaceable heritage, contributions & rich history of the Native American communities.
