An ally’s account of the Land Back win at the West Berkeley Shellmound.
One strategy for protecting sacred land is in-depth reporting on sites around the world. Our 125 sacred site reports dive into the history, cultural significance and current status of what Hopi elder Thomas Banyacya called “the spots of the fawn.” Many sites are threatened, some have been protected (for now), and as Winnemem healer Florence Jones once said, “They hold our world together.”
Are you planning to visit a sacred place? We’re all drawn to places of power — but indigenous peoples’ sacred sites have protocols we all need to respect.
