“Now please welcome a friend of mine from the Minnesota DFL, the treasurer, her name is Lindy Sowmick, who is from the Saginaw Ojibwe Nation and she’s going to deliver our land acknowledgment today,” Martin said.

“Good morning, DNC members, friends and relatives, let’s talk about the land for a second. The DNC acknowledges and honors the… Dakota people, who are the original stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis. The Dakota cared for the lands, lakes and the… great river, the Mississippi River for thousands of years before colonization,” Sowmick said. “This land was not claimed or traded, it’s part of a history of broken treaties and promises, and in many ways, we still live in a system built to suppress indigenous peoples’ cultural and spiritual history.”
