  • Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory
    Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 CAUT Guide to Acknowledging First Peoples & Traditional Territory September 2017 The following document offers the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) recommended territorial acknowledgement for institutions where our members work, organized by province. While most of these campuses are included, the list will gradually become more complete as we learn more about specific traditional territories. When requested, we have also included acknowledgements for other post-secondary institutions as well. We wish to emphasize that this is a guide, not a script. We are recommending the acknowledgements that have been developed by local university-based Indigenous councils or advisory groups, where possible. In other places, where there are multiple territorial acknowledgements that exist for one area or the acknowledgements are contested, the multiple acknowledgements are provided.

  • Indigenous Resilience
    INDIGENOUS RESILIENCE Michalyn Steele* The story of federal Indian law is the story of Indian tribal survival in the face of perpetual challenges to their legal and cultural existence, both in law and policy. These assaults have come from every quarter: federal, state, and private actors, as well as from the judicial, legislative, and executive branches. Tribes have often lost key contests challenging their rights and status. Among other challenges, they have overcome disease, starvation, and colonialism. Theirs is a story of striking resilience. Resilience theorists study institutions, systems, and individuals to understand how they withstand, or why they succumb to, significant disruption. Resilience theory has traditionally informed law and policy in a wide range of areas from disaster response to ecology to healthcare strategies. But to date, legal and resilience theorists have largely ignored the indigenous strategies and principles that have enabled the improbable legal and cultural survival of tribes as peoples and self-governing institutions. Thus, the story of indigenous resilience provides a rich—but previously untapped— resource for understanding how institutions prepare for and adapt to disruption, not only for resilience theorists, but also for all those interested in preparing for and responding to potential threats to peoples and institutions. This Article fills this critical gap in resilience theory and practice by looking to the tribes, particularly through the lens of Haudenosaunee principles, to better understand resilience strategies. In particular, this Article identifies a set of principles of indigenous resilience that have enabled American Indian and Alaska Native tribes to adapt and maintain their core identities in the face of unimaginable assaults.

  • Land Acknowledgments a Guide
    Land Acknowledgments A Guide WHAT IS A LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT? A land acknowledgment is an act of reconciliation that involves giving a statement at the start of an event or meeting to recognize the indigenous inhabitants of the land. To acknowledge is one way to show respect to Indigenous peoples and their enduring connection with their traditional territories and its histories. WHY ARE THEY IMPORTANT? We are guests on the territory where we currently have the privilege to study, live and work. It is important to acknowledge the original inhabitants of this land and the history they share with this land as a step towards reconciliation. DISH WITH ONE SPOON WAMPUM AGREEMENT McMaster University stands on land protected by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum agreement. Wampum belts are beads bound onto strings which narrate Haudenosaunee history, tradition and laws. The “Dish With One Spoon” wampum was created to bind the nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy to the Great Law of Peace. The “Dish” represents the shared land, while “One Spoon” reinforces the idea of sharing and peace. HOW CAN YOU PLAY A ROLE? At McMaster University, we are committed to the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion. We hope to foster a cohort of students and graduates who are aware and serious about reconciliation. As such, we encourage you, as leaders in the community, to adopt land acknowledgments at the beginning of your meetings or events, irrespective of the size. While giving acknowledgment is a step towards reconciliation, it is important to recognize that it is only one small step towards equity and inclusion.

The second belt, collected by John Jay White from an unknown locale before 1926, was identified as Abenaki; it, too, was tagged with an old MAI number (MAI #11/123; Figure 1).

Algonquian is the broad linguistic clas- sification for the Algonkian cultural group that includes the Indigenous nations in New England and in parts of Quebec, Ontario, and the Great Lakes. The beads were carved from the shells of univalve and bivalve mollusks harvested from the shores of Long Island Sound and other northeastern North American locales where riverine fresh waters mingled with marine salt waters.

  • ABORIGINAL EDUCATION COUNCIL LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT | Updated: Aug 2016
    Land Acknowledgement "Toronto is in the 'Dish With One Spoon Territory’. The Dish With One Spoon is a treaty between the Anishinaabe, Mississauga’s and Haudenosaunee that bound them to share the territory and protect the land. Subsequent Indigenous Nations and peoples, Europeans and all newcomers have been invited into this treaty in the spirit of peace, friendship and respect." ~~~~ To hereby the "Dish" or sometimes it is called the "Bowl" represents what is now southern Ontario (from the Great Lakes to Quebec and from Lake Simcoe into the U.S.). *We all eat out of the Dish - all of us that share this territory- with only one spoon. That means we have to share the responsibility of ensuring the dish is never empty; which includes, taking care of the land and the creatures we share it with. Importantly, there are no knives at the table, representing that we must keep the peace. The dish is graphically represented by the wampum pictured below: *This was a treaty made between the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee after the French and Indian War. Newcomers were then incorporated into it over the years, notably in 1764 with The Royal Proclamation/The Treaty of Niagara. The purpose of the acknowledgement started in B.C., where there are no treaties at all. So people are actually living, working, and meeting on stolen land. Its popularity has spread as an acknowledgment of Indigenous presence and assertion of sovereignty. People use it in different ways such as at opening events and meetings.

  • A Dish with One Spoon: the Shared Hunting Grounds Agreement in the Great Lakes and St
    A Dish with One Spoon: The Shared Hunting Grounds Agreement in the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Valley Region VICTOR P. LYTWYN Acton, Ont. INTRODUCTION The words dish with one spoon and other similar terms1 have been used since time immemorial by aboriginal people in the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence valley region to describe agreements concerning shared hunting grounds. The dish symbolizes a common hunting ground, while the spoon denotes that people are free to hunt within it and to eat the game and fish together. Agreements between aboriginal nations to share hunting grounds predate written records, but their antiquity is memorialized in oral traditions. Mnemonic devices such as wampum belts have also preserved the image of a shared hunting ground in beadwork patterns crafted by aboriginal record keepers over the ages. Such agreements were sometimes formalized in treaties, and after the arrival of Europeans in North America the words were translated and recorded by French, Dutch and English interpreters and secretaries who attended treaty council meetings. Throughout the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, treaties involving the dish with one spoon were renewed between Algonquian and Iroquoian nations in a vast area around the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence valley. This paper examines the concept of the dish with one spoon as it applied to agreements or treaties between aboriginal nations in the St. Lawrence valley and Great Lakes region. It reviews agreements to share hunting grounds which have been preserved in oral traditions, wampum belts and written records. Finally, it traces the continuity of such agree­ ments over the course of at least three centuries to the present.
