Same Day Sunday! Walk in Tattoos on Sunday November 2nd

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THE ORIGINAL PEOPLE OF THIS LAND

To acknowledge the ancestors that were here before us, to pay respect to those who were colonized through forced relocation and displacement AND to acknowledge the Native/Indigenous people who survive, resist and are part of our community today, despite the intentional attempts at genocide.

We acknowledge that the land we now call Portland, OR and Multnomah County where our tattoo shop is located, are stolen lands that are the traditional lands and village sites of the Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Stl’pulmsh (Cowlitz) bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, Cascades, Clayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, and other Tribes who made their homes along the Columbia and Willamette Rivers.

Today, people from those bands have become part of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, as well as the Chinook Nation and Cowlitz Nation in Washington State.

To learn more about the traditional territories, treaties and agreements, and residential (boarding) schools in our location go to the Whose Land website.
