Mountain Stream Meditation recognizes that we operate on unceded Nisenan land
and that the Nisenan are still struggling to gain federal recognition.

“[We should] acknowledge that a grave injustice was done to the original inhabitants of our county, an injustice that has yet to be rectified. There may be only a few of us who are directly related to the forty-niners, but we have inherited the land they conquered, and their legacy. Through our actions in the present, we can begin to heal the deep wounds of the past... I would encourage anyone who is interested to support their cause, which is to restore the Rancheria and the heritage that was unceremoniously stripped from them 50 years ago.”— R.L. Crabb, We also inherit the legacy, theunion.com, August 2015
