Use the chat to send the host a message • What “one thing you will do differently” today? This week? This month? • How might you conduct yourself differently? 6 “One Thing I will Do Differently” One thing I will continue to do (with the new perspective of the power I own) is to continuously & constantly remind my co-workers & our leadership of the experience of our community members who are not privileged & are consistently overlooked. I will begin to ask questions to leadership/others that shed a light on where we could do better (representation, genuine opportunities), especially in those places where I do not feel that my direct input/proposals will be heard. 1 thing to do differently - poll our board to explore how inclusive board members find it. A forum for real honesty and an opportunity for suggestions. One thing that I'm going to do differently is TRY to engage with our board members to bridge the gap between them and the frontline worker I will think about hiring for our new director of individual giving by thinking of skills vs track record, which is really looked down upon in fundraising for non profits. 7 Thank You Please share your feedback in our live poll.

  • An Overview of Ohlone Culture by Robert Cartier
    An Overview of Ohlone Culture By Robert Cartier In the 16th century, (prior to the arrival of the Spaniards), over 10,000 Indians lived in the central California coastal areas between Big Sur and the Golden Gate of San Francisco Bay. This group of Indians consisted of approximately forty different tribelets ranging in size from 100–250 members, and was scattered throughout the various ecological regions of the greater Bay Area (Kroeber, 1953). They did not consider themselves to be a part of a larger tribe, as did well- known Native American groups such as the Hopi, Navaho, or Cheyenne, but instead functioned independently of one another. Each group had a separate, distinctive name and its own leader, territory, and customs. Some tribelets were affiliated with neighbors, but only through common boundaries, inter-tribal marriage, trade, and general linguistic affinities. (Margolin, 1978). When the Spaniards and other explorers arrived, they were amazed at the variety and diversity of the tribes and languages that covered such a small area. In an attempt to classify these Indians into a large, encompassing group, they referred to the Bay Area Indians as "Costenos," meaning "coastal people." The name eventually changed to "Coastanoan" (Margolin, 1978). The Native American Indians of this area were referred to by this name for hundreds of years until descendants chose to call themselves Ohlones (origination uncertain). Utilizing hunting and gathering technology, the Ohlone relied on the relatively substantial supply of natural plant and animal life in the local environment. With the exception of the dog, we know of no plants or animals domesticated by the Ohlone.

  • Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California
    Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California This chapter discusses the native language spoken at Spanish contact by people who eventually moved to missions within Costanoan language family territories. No area in North America was more crowded with distinct languages and language families than central California at the time of Spanish contact. In the chapter we will examine the information that leads scholars to conclude the following key points: The local tribes of the San Francisco Peninsula spoke San Francisco Bay Costanoan, the native language of the central and southern San Francisco Bay Area and adjacent coastal and mountain areas. San Francisco Bay Costanoan is one of six languages of the Costanoan language family, along with Karkin, Awaswas, Mutsun, Rumsen, and Chalon. The Costanoan language family is itself a branch of the Utian language family, of which Miwokan is the only other branch. The Miwokan languages are Coast Miwok, Lake Miwok, Bay Miwok, Plains Miwok, Northern Sierra Miwok, Central Sierra Miwok, and Southern Sierra Miwok. Other languages spoken by native people who moved to Franciscan missions within Costanoan language family territories were Patwin (a Wintuan Family language), Delta and Northern Valley Yokuts (Yokutsan family languages), Esselen (a language isolate) and Wappo (a Yukian family language). Below, we will first present a history of the study of the native languages within our maximal study area, with emphasis on the Costanoan languages. In succeeding sections, we will talk about the degree to which Costanoan language variation is clinal or abrupt, the amount of difference among dialects necessary to call them different languages, and the relationship of the Costanoan languages to the Miwokan languages within the Utian Family.

  • 3.7 Cultural Resources
    Impact Analysis City of Menlo Park Cultural Resources 3.7 Cultural Resources This section describes the affected environment and regulatory setting for Cultural Resources, including brief descriptions of the prehistoric and historic setting of the Commonwealth Corporate Center Project (Project) area and the results of the archaeological resources investigation conducted for the Project. Applicable federal, state, and local regulations are identified, followed by impact analysis and mitigation measures, as applicable, to reduce potentially adverse impacts on cultural resources. This section is based on a records search at the Northwest Information Center (NWIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System, a search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) sacred lands database, and geological information. No comments pertaining to cultural resources were received in response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP) (Appendix 1). Existing Conditions Regulatory Setting Federal National Historic Preservation Act. Federal regulations for cultural resources are primarily governed by Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, which applies to actions taken by federal agencies. The goal of the Section 106 review process is to offer a measure of protection to sites that are determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The criteria for determining NRHP eligibility are found in 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 60. Section 106 of the NHPA requires federal agencies to take into account the effects of their undertakings on historic properties and affords the federal Advisory Council on Historic Preservation a reasonable opportunity to comment on such undertakings. The Council’s implementing regulations, “Protection of Historic Properties,” are found in 36 CFR Part 800.

Description 1.1 Name of society, language, and language family: Costanoan, Costanoan, belongs to the Penutian language family.” [14] Ohlone or Castanoan, Ohlone, Castanoan Family [3] There are eight Costanoan languages: Karkin, Ramaytush, Chochenyo, Temyen, Awaswas, Chalon, Mutsun, and Rumsen -- These languages come from the Utian language family of the Penutian language stock [4] 1.2 ISO code (3 letter code from ethnologue.com): 639-3 [1] 1.3 Location (latitude/longitude): 36.6315° N, 121.8813° W North central California, Monterrey and San Benito counties [1] “The Ohlone people lived in the area which now approximately covers San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Benito, and Monterey County.” [2] 1.4 Brief history: “In 1769, Carlos III, the king of Spain, sent Junipero Serra, a Franciscan priest, and Gaspar de Portola, a military commander, to lead an expedition to establish missions in what is now California. The missions were established for both religious and political reasons. The missionary plan was to teach the Native peoples how to be "civilized," for example: avoiding , eating with utensils, and most importantly, adopting the religion of Christianity. The missionaries believed that, through baptism, they were saving pagan souls from being put into hell for eternity. The original idea was that, after ten years of living in the missions, the Indians would become citizens of Spain (though this never happened). It was hoped that these citizens would then protect the new territory lands for Spain. In the 1820's, Mexico won its independence from Spain, California became Mexican territory, and California Natives became Mexican citizens.
