The Chicago Public Library’s Native and Indigenous Allies Committee invite all to learn from and celebrate our Native and Indigenous neighbors in Chicago, the Midwest, and all over.
Please read CPL’s Land Acknowledgement in partnership with the American Indian Center in Chicago:
The Chicago Public Library is located on the traditional homelands of the Council of the Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations. Many other tribes such as the Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sac, and Fox also called this area home. The region has long been a center for Indigenous people to gather, trade, and maintain kinship ties. Today, one of the largest urban American Indian communities in the United States resides in Chicago. Members of this community continue to contribute to the life of this city and to celebrate their heritage, practice traditions, and care for the land and waterways.
