Acknowledging
Tribal Land I acknowledge the traditional stewards of the lands whose ancestors have resided here since Time Immemorial. Many Indigenous people thrive in this place - alive and strong (a). I express gratitude to the Tongva, Kucamonga, and Gabrielino people past and present for loving and caring for this land that was stolen from them.
In response, I express my care for Native women and children by donating to the National Indigenous Women's Resource Center to help stop violence against Native women and their children. I also purpose to buy and read books by Native authors and as my knowledge increases on how to be a better ally I step up to honor those who have come before and those I stand beside.

Get to know the Heartbeat
of Our Black Founders in the Inland Empire I am so grateful to be a part of The Bridges that Carried Us Over project and most importantly to have the archive of the stories of the lives of African-American visionaries, scholars, and trailblazers, icons in their own right, who paved the way for success by example!
They helped make San Bernardino an All-American City in 1977. Hearing their stories is a point of empowerment and it is a privilege to be able to honor them and their sacrifices and triumphs. The Bridges That Carried Us Over
