We live up here in N'Swakamok, in Robinson-Huron Treaty territory, the traditional territories of the Atikameksheng Anishnawbek and Wahnapitae First Nation.

N'Swakamok, meaning “where the three roads meet.”

We are privileged to continue to gather on this land and commit to uplifting the voices of Indigenous artists and community members, amidst ongoing systemic violence and oppression. 

We also acknowledge this country’s history of slavery, its role in establishing the colonial state, and its continuing legacy of systemic anti-Black racism. 

Black Lives Matter, and from Turtle Island to Palestine, land back.
