Land Acknowledgment Initiative
The Inter-Tribal Council of AT&T Employee’s (ICAE) is proposing that a Land Acknowledgement be implemented initially before ERG and EN employee events that are sponsored by D&I. Our hope is to share our efforts with receptive business units as well. To further this reconciliation effort throughout AT&T, we hope to have this initiative adopted at the corporate level.
​Conducting a Land Acknowledgement is a traditional custom that dates back centuries in many Native American nations and communities. Today, land acknowledgments are used by Native and non-Native People alike to recognize Indigenous Peoples*
who are the original inhabitants and stewards of the lands on which we now live and work each day.
​
The Inter-Tribal Council of AT&T Employee’s would like to ask all Employee Group Leaders support for this initiative that we feel is long over-due and one that can potentially begin a reconciliation process for the benefit of all whose cultures and heritage are tied to the land we live and work each day. The history of the forceful removal of Native Americans and Indigenous from their homelands have resonating impact still today.

“Let us pause for a moment to acknowledge the traditional stewards of the lands that we now reside on, and especially our
ancestors, descendants, and all Indigenous people who live now and have ever lived in our regions of Turtle Island.”
*pause*
