"On Savage Shores is an excellent exploration of Indigenous presence in and contribution to Europe and nascent globalization. Pennock, by recognizing and voicing a space for Indigenous Peoples in Europe, she has told a story that needs to form a part of every history class from grade school to university. I highly recommend On Savage Shores for an original and important recasting of sixteenth-century Europe. It is really a decolonizing and un-whitening approach to the past."

#CurrentlyReading All Our Relations: Native Struggles for Land and Life by Winona LaDuke

It is infuriating, but so important. We have taken so much from our indigenous people in the U.S. and Canada. So much. And we continue to take to this day.

Looking for a way to highlight how Indigenous Mexicans participated in the Mexican Revolution? There are many surprising sources, and textbooks tend to ignore Indigenous perspective on the Revolution.

Long (but important) read.

Earlier this week, I met with Cr. Borg, who was generous enough to give me the entire afternoon to discuss the concerns I have in our community. Top of the agenda was Disability, but I also discussed issues regarding coviding, the arts and Indigenous history.

A legal battle ensued between Ygnacio and his stepmother Jacoba Feliz. Around the same time, gold was discovered in the eastern part of the ranch, raising the stakes. Eventually they split the land, with Ygnacio taking the western portion (Rancho Camulos) and Jacoba taking the eastern portion.

And of course, the indigenous #Tataviam , who were already living in the valley, were completely ignored during this. (5/5)

A legal battle ensued between him and his stepmother, who also wanted the land. Eventually they split the land, with Yagacio staking claim in the land in the western portion called Rancho Camulos. Cue the romanticized story of the Oak of the Golden Dream 🌳 and the Mexican-American War ⚔️.

And of course, the indigenous #Tataviam were killed and their desires ignored. (5/5)

Shortly after being gifted Rancho San Francisco in 1839, Antonio del Valle and his family moved into the former #estancia buildings and made it their home.

In 1841, Antonio attempted to deed the ranch to his estranged son Ygnacio in a letter he wrote on his deathbed. He died before Ygnacio received the letter, but when he did, he took up his father’s offer and returned home to claim of the land. But someone else laid claim to it! (4/5)

In 1833, the #Mexican government signed the Mexican Secularization Act of 1833, which secularized the missions and transferred ownership their estates from the Franciscan Order to the Mexican government.

The estancia was originally planned to be returned to the #Tataviam people, but instead, Governor Juan Bautista Alvarado gifted the land to Lieutenant Antonio del Valle in 1839, in recognition of his military service to #AltaCalifornia. (3/5)

In 1804, they established an adobe #estancia (missionary ranching outpost) along the banks of the Santa Clara River near its confluence with Castaic Creek. The Estancia de San Francisco Xavier would provide much of the food the #mission needed to grow into one of the most successful missions in #AltaCalifornia. (2/5)

A brief history of Rancho San Francisco 📖

Around 1800, Franciscan missionaries from Mission San Fernando Rey de Español ventured north into the Santa Clarita Valley in search of additional land suitable for agriculture and ranching to support the growing #mission. Subsequently, the missionaries brought some of the local #Tataviam with them to the mission where they were #baptized and #enslaved for free labour. (1/5)
