Action: Engage the Indigenous Peoples of the region to document and celebrate the importance of the indigenous cultures of the LA River, past and present.
Nations of native peoples have lived in the LA River region for millennia, making their history, traditions, and practices critical to painting a full picture of the river.
There is still much to learn about and document from present-day Tribal communities, including historical interactions and future visions regarding the importance of physical access to the river, choice of language in narratives surrounding the river, and traditional approaches to managing and adapting to flooding.
