*We stand on the homelands of the Wahpekute Band of the Dakota Nation. We
honor with gratitude the people who have stewarded the land throughout the
generations and their ongoing contributions to this region. We acknowledge
the ongoing injustices that we have committed against the Dakota Nation,
and we wish to interrupt this legacy, beginning with acts of healing and
honest storytelling about this place.*
