My Dance Acknowledgement

Dancing takes place on the land and so instead of a land acknowledge for these NFT’s Dancing with History I offer a Dance Acknowledgement which recognizes that the land that is Chicago was once danced upon by Native Americans like the Potawatomi people the Odawa, Ojibwe, Peoria, Kaskaskia, Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Mascouten, Kickapoo, and Meskwaki, as well as mound builders and other tribes whose names are not known but should be remembered. There are many dances created by people who honored and knew this land their continued dancing inspires the creation of the Dancing with History NFT collection. May these dances and more still be danced in Chicago and elsewhere and may this humble inspiration be looked upon with the respect it is delivered in.
