It is important for Mt. SAC to acknowledge that our campus resides on what was historically the homeland of Navite American/Indigenous Peoples.  At the start of each Student Equity Committee meeting, we acknowledge the Indigenous People at Mt. SAC: “We would like to take a moment to acknowledge that we are on Tongva land and recognize them as the traditional caretakers of Tovaangar (the Los Angeles Basin, So. Channel Islands), what we now call home. We would also like to pay our respects to the Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘Eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.”
