I would say that, historically, land is one of the most important things on Earth. Land, water, that sort of thing, and the resources it provides. The reason that so many Native tribes were displaced when colonization came, was for land.

Lisa Tatonetti

Yes.

Justin Lane:

So obviously, Western culture values land very greatly. And there's also you know, a Native side to that. Natives value land, also, but from a different point of view. So a lot of I think, identity comes from the land and traditions come from the land. Depending on how you get your food from the land, the animals you hunt from the land, that sort of thing historically.
