David and Saskia will be addressing the following topics: acknowledging Indigenous territories and peoples; a truthful representation of history with a focus on Wampanoag and Noêpe history; Sassafras Earth Education and mentoring in ancestral skills and knowledge; land culture and how Wampanoag people identify with the land and the underlying spiritual values; and strategies of repair and activism that lift up Indigenous voices.
