PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Hundreds of people from across the United States and abroad are in the city to celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day at a very significant location.

Penn Treaty Park, on the banks of the Delaware River in Fishtown, is where founder of the commonwealth William Penn signed a treaty of peace with the local Lenape tribe in 1683, according to legend. Now, it is known as a place of peace and plays host to an annual celebration of North and South American native cultures.

“The festival consists of shows and stories and teachings of native life and native history,” says Janis Stacy who is with IPD Philly and is one of the event’s organizers.

They welcome natives from Canada to Chile on this day, for the purpose of “countering the idea of Columbus — which came in and started a massive genocide against our people,” Stacy said.

“When we get together, it’s family from all the tribes, from all the nations. All the council fires come together, and we start sharing stories and such.”

Indigenous Peoples Day has been celebrated in this way in Philadelphia since 2017. Philadelphia replaced Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day as an official city holiday in 2021.

Eugene Black Crow, a Lakota raised on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, was one of the many people who came to celebrate.

“They come and perform, they dance, they sell their wares. I, myself, do bead work and medicine pouches,” said Black Crow.

Black Crow, who is dedicated to preserving the Lakota language and culture, has attended the celebration since 2018.

“I just like sitting here enjoying the people you know. We have people from South America, Central America and North America. We’re all native Americans.”

Stacy, who is of Dakota and Cherokee…

Galloway, N.J.  – Stockton University marked its fourth year celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day, a counter-holiday that centers on the history, culture and continued experiences of the Indigenous people who stewarded this land before it became recognized as the United States of America on Monday.

It also marks the culmination of two years of work by Ryann Casey ‘01, the exhibition coordinator for the Stockton Art Gallery, and her team, which gathered and organized the works of 25 local and international Indigenous artists for the “Indigenous Approaches, Sustainable Futures” exhibition and its related celebrations and programming hosted by the School of Arts & Humanities. 

A closing reception for “Indigenous Approaches, Sustainable Futures” is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 12, in the Upper Floor of the Art Gallery from 6-8 p.m. 

“This exhibition highlights what I, as an alumna, consider to be core attributes of Stockton University, which are honoring land, identity and sustainability,” Casey said. “At the end of the day, I hope that this exhibit provides us with a foundation to learning more about the Indigenous experience.”

The daylong celebration began with a recognition of place and poem by Tyrese “Bright Flower” Gould Jacinto of the Nanticoke/Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation and welcome remarks by Stockton President Joe Bertolino.
