Land donations add to tribal land holdings
The family of private land-owners just donated a valuable piece of land in California to the state-recognized Gabrielino Tongva tribe. It will be a place of ceremonial gatherings and conservation.
Another California tribe, the Esselen, also regained ownership of more than 1,000 acres of land for conservation. Land donations by both private individuals and government entities are putting pieces of ancestral land back into tribal hands.
Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce talks more about the importance of donations toward restoring culturally-important land.
