North Shore Music Theatre Land Acknowledgement
North Shore Music Theatre would like to respectfully acknowledge the Naumkeag (Nah- um-kee-ahg) people, as the land we are currently on was their ancestral lands until disease, war, slavery and colonization displaced them from their homeland. The Naumkeag people were part of the Massachusett Alliance and their descendants are now included in the many tribal nations across the Northeast. We recognize our obligations to this land and to the Indigenous people who cared for it. As we work toward diversity, equity, and inclusion, we acknowledge our need to decolonize our systems by including Indigenous people and perspectives in our productions, and within our casts, staff, and our artistic and leadership teams. |
