The vast majority of federal lands are carved out of the ancestral homelands of Tribal Nations. Despite physical removal by military force and displacement from these traditional territories, Tribal Nations’ cultural and inherited connections to these places have remained strong. Federal land management laws fail to protect the rights and interests of Tribal Nations with a historical connection to, or treaty or other reserved rights on, public land. Currently, public land containing a Tribal sacred place or treaty rights to fish or hunt may be sold to private developers or put under state control regardless of a Tribe’s relationship to the land. We must all stand together in order to protect these sacred places and to ensure Indigenous voices are amplified, through representation to co-lead and co-manage in these important matters for the future of our planet. We have an inherent right to the freedom of our religions, belief systems, and traditional ways of life. Join us in adding your name in support of the Advancing Tribal Parity on Public Lands Act and the Tribal Cultural Areas System Act. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/protect-native-places-petition
