Ronald Taylor Dance acknowledges that the land we gather on is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. This includes the many peoples, named and unnamed, who have stewarded this land before our arrival.
The territory is the subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably care for and share the resources around the Great Lakes.
We are Treaty Peoples, including those of us who came here as immigrants and contributors to care for the land like it’s our own either in this generation or in generations past and just like many of our Ancestors who came here through the confines of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
We are grateful to be able to share this space with so many knowledge-keepers, including the courageous and phenomenal artists with whom Ronald Taylor Dance collaborates every day.
