The Herring Pond Wampanoag: A Journey Through History and Resilience

Sanctuary 25 South Main Street, Middleborough

In honor of Indigenous Peoples Day/Month, Jill Lauzon, Vice Chair and Outreach Coordinator of the Herring Pond Wampanoag Tribe, will explore the Tribe’s deep historical roots in the Plymouth region as well as their ongoing efforts to preserve their land, culture, and traditions.  In her talk, she will highlight the Tribe’s legacy that spans thousands of years before the Pilgrims arrival in 1620 and share insights into current initiatives such as food sovereignty, wellness programs, and intergenerational knowledge-sharing. A vocal ensemble will sing Water Is Life ~ Mni Wičoni, a song for Standing Rock.
