The DC Acknowledgement of the Anacostan People

Here is the text of a basic Acknowledgement of the Anacostan People of Washington, DC that was composed with the guidance of Chief Jesse James Swann Jr, of the local Piscataway Conoy Tribe. Please pass it on to organizations who may like to use it to open their meetings.
We acknowledge that this meeting is taking place on the traditional land of the Anacostan People of the Piscataway Tribe.
And here it is when it was first used on Oct 8, 2019 by City Councliman, David Grosso
