Land
Acknowledgement: “350 Humboldt would like to acknowledge that where
we live and hold our meetings in Humboldt County is on unceded
territory and the ancestral homeland of indigenous nations which
include Tolowa, Hupa, Karuk, Mattole, Wailaki, Wiyot, and Yurok.

We thank indigenous
nations who have been caretakers of the land. Additionally, we
recognize that the well-being of all people is bound up with that of
indigenous peoples, and we must all
take action on the climate.”

This month we are
supporting the people of Nuiqsut,
the Inupiaq community closest to the proposed Willow project. Nuiqsut
is already inundated with oil and gas drilling sites that have
wrecked havoc on their life and livelihood. Both the City of Nuiqsut
and the Native Village of Nuiqsit have voiced opposition to the
Willow Project.

Their letter of
opposition to the Willow Project can be found at: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/565291dee4b06ed63ea669d4/t/63d8287ab74e196371bdcf1f/1675110527125/City+of+Nuiqsut+and+NVN+letter+re+Willow.pdf
