DESCRIPTION:I dunno, are you also made just a wee bit uneasy by those pre-program 
 apologia land acknowledgements, viz. "We  acknowledge we occupy the 
 traditional, unceded lands of the such and such tribe"?\n\nDo you wonder 
 how month after month, year after year such formal posturing can go on, but 
 without a formal action summit on "what to do about it," attended by all 
 the well-intended organizations, groups, and institutions who repeat the 
 mea culpa?\n\nThe Commons SF is hosting that summit . . . on a weekly basis 
 . . . and you're invited to attend. To be effective, that summit can't be 
 just another ordinary gather, and it isn't. It's a walking tour surveying 
 San Francisco social movement history. The walk proposes a hypothesis: 
 equality of access to urban, rural, and wild lands is the key to 
 short-circuiting oppressive behaviors.\n\nThe pragmatic public policy (John 
 Dewey described it as such) for achieving the greatest diminution in 
 institutional oppressive behaviors is socializing land values. For Native 
 Americans that would mean restoring the whole of the USA's annual land 
 value to all inhabitants of USA North America in the form of funding for 
 public transportation, public health, public education, public XXXXX, etc. 
 \n\nWhat if, after acknowledging the land as the unceded lands of such and 
 such a tribe, each acknowledging entity followed that remark with a demand 
 for returning that land's value to the people as a whole?\n
