Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians

The American Indian Studies Program recognizes and acknowledges the Sesevitam, the first people of this ancestral and unceded territory of Sesevenga that is now occupied by our institution; and it honors their elders, past and present, and the Sesevitam descendants who are citizens of the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians. AIS recognizes that the Sesevitam are still here and it is committed to lifting up their stories, culture, and community.

AcknowledgeRent.org is a tangible way for the residents of northern Los Angeles County to make meaningful land acknowledgements through voluntary contributions to the Fernandeno Tataviam Band of Mission Indians. Through AcknowledgeRent, people who reside or work on Tataviam homelands can help undo the harm caused by the theft of a landbase that has ongoing ramifications for this community.
