Opinion | Enough With the Land Acknowledgments

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : The Covid-19 virus hit reservations particularly hard in the early months of the pandemic, but because in the past few decades many tribes took over the management of their public health systems from the Bureau of Indian Affairs, many tribal governments ultimately had better outcomes than neighboring non-Native-majority counties.
53% : Florida State University and the Seminole Tribe of Florida have established such a relationship, which started with the tribe's involvement in designing the mascot's regalia but now extends to other partnerships, including creating a Native American and Indigenous Studies Center.Cities, counties and states could share jurisdiction of some of their lands and projects to tribes and work as partners.
