What if I told you that America has failed to federally acknowledge the continued tribal existence of hundreds of Native American tribes?
Did you know that California has the highest concentration of Non-Federally Acknowledged tribes in America?
What if I told you the State of California is responsible for a genocide that continues today

Early California legislators prevented America from honoring it's treaties (18 signed in 1852) with an estimated, no fewer than, 119 California tribal nations?
170 years of broken treaties, and still counting, caused by the State of California.
"Genocide Through Bureaucracy: Reduce and Eliminate”
- What once was used to systematically eradicate the indigenous communities of America, including but not limited to murder, disease infested blankets, and boarding schools, today the only remaining democratic process for recourse for tribes is designed, implemented, and instituted to be the final dagger in their existence.
- The bureaucratic process, that is the Federal Acknowledgement Petition process, average wait time is 4-5 decades!!
- Intergenerational trauma is cultural, spiritual, and language eradication by the continued denial of guaranteed treaty concessions.

What does the term "Federally Acknowledged Tribe" mean?
“Acknowledgement" is a legal term meaning that the United States recognizes a government-to-government relationship with a Tribe.
Why are there so many Non-Federally Acknowledged Tribes in California?
Due to pressure from California delegates, Congress failed to ratify 18 early California treaties and ordered them to remain secret.
1 in 3 Tribes currently seeking Federal Acknowledgement are from California.
(Fresno County is the most populated County in America)
Over 80,000 tribal members indigenous to California are affected.
13 States have a formal process of state Acknowledgement for all tribes indigenous to their respective state.
(Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Vermont, and Virginia)
California has yet to establish a formal state tribal acknowledgement process.
Non-Federally Acknowledged tribes of California tribal members receive no support or aid.
Governor Newsom Proposes $100 Million to Support Tribal-Led Initiatives that Advance Shared Climate and Conservation Goals. California's Non-Federally Acknowledge tribes are not included.
The most populated counties in America with active pending tribally submitted petitions for Federal Acknowledgement are in California:
Fresno (9), Monterey (7), and Los Angeles (5). Together these 3 counties account for One-Third of all California Tribal petitions.
The three most populated California counties have more tribes with pending petitions for Federal Acknowledgement than 16 other states combined.

Creating Data Where Data Does Not Exist
Because these tribes are not considered lawfully Native American, no State or Federal funding is allocated to quantify this plight. As such, we have conducted our own research.
The San Joaquin Valley region is composed of 13 counties: San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Merced, Madera, Fresno, Kings, Tulare, Kern, Calaveras, Tuolumne, Mono, Mariposa and Inyo.
32 of 66 current California tribal petitions for Federal Acknowledgement are indigenous to the San Joaquin Valley.
More than Alaska (5), Arkansas (5), Maryland (3), New Jersey (4), Oregon (3), Rhode Island (6), Tennessee (3), and Wisconsin (1) combined.
Since the creation of the Federal Petition process for Tribal Acknowledgment, in 1978, no California tribe has successfully restored their lawful rights through the current existing petition process.
California has more tribal petitions for Federal Acknowledgement than the remaining top five states combined: North Carolina (20), Michigan (18), Virginia (14), and Louisiana (13).
A total of 65 tribal petitions to California’s 66.
The number of California tribal petitions for Federal Acknowledgement are more than 26 states combined.
Fresno County accounts for more tribal petitions for Federal Acknowledgment than Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Montana, Nevada, and Pennsylvania combined.
13 States have a form of State Tribal Acknowledgement. California is not one.
