Join us for an important conversation during # America250: We Are Here – Estamos Aquí.
On June 17, 2026, at 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT, this webinar will bring together leaders from the National Association of Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (NATHPO) and Latinos in Heritage Conservation to explore how Indigenous and Latinx histories have been shaped by migration, borders, policy, memory, and cultural resilience.

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, we invite you to reflect on critical questions: Who belongs in the national narrative? Whose stories have been overlooked, excluded, or forgotten?

Today, June 8th, we celebrate World Oceans Day, but beyond celebrating the water, it’s time to recognize its true guardians.
The ocean is our planet's lungs, but its most effective protection comes from Indigenous and coastal communities.
From French Polynesia, to the Tremembé people in Brazil, they safeguard the waters that sustain us all. This Oceans Day, let’s look beyond the horizon and honor the communities keeping our planet alive.
