Within its various projects as a presenter and place of residence, the presence of indigenous artists, racialized persons, members of queer and\/or minority communities are envisioned as the norm, and not as an exception. The organization is committed to supporting the fight against colonial domination, sexism, racism and discrimination with concrete actions: targeted volunteer actions; circulation of discourses related to these struggles; setting up of structuring projects to stimulate the meeting between indigenous and allochthonous artists; attention to the enhancement of indigenous languages and traditions, recognition of the territory.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-b87hqn-83af7b487c264a61dad888f13c752b2f\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-b87hqn-83af7b487c264a61dad888f13c752b2f{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-b87hqn-83af7b487c264a61dad888f13c752b2f .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-b87hqn-83af7b487c264a61dad888f13c752b2f .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-b87hqn-83af7b487c264a61dad888f13c752b2f av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Land and water acknowledgment<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-8i26nz-27561cf16eed47e88f929311af82d836 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>We, the artists and collaborators of Mandoline Hybride\u2019s company based in Marsoui, want to recognize that our activities and gatherings take place on traditional unceded lands and waters of the Mi\u2019gmaq Nation. These traditional lands and waters are known to the Mi\u2019gmaq community as the 7th District of Mi\u2019gma\u2019gi, Gespe\u2019gewa\u2019gi: The Last Land. In 1726, the Peace and Friendship Treaties were made between the nations of the Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet), the Mi\u2019kmaq (Micmac) and the British Crown. The treaties in question did not contain a clause relating to the cession of lands and waters, but did recognize the Wolastoqiyik and Mi\u2019kmaq title, setting the rules for what were to be peaceful and harmonious relationships between nations. We also wish to acknowledge that the coasts of the Saint-Lawrence River have been places for encounters, fruit picking, fishing and hunting for indigenous people since long before the first settlers arrived. Through art and community projects, our hope is to contribute to the ancestral movement of artistic exchange between peoples and to recognize our responsibility to renew our practices with respect for present and future generations.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mandolinehybride.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/livre-FR.jpg\" width=\"116\" height=\"174\" \/>This acknowledgement was written in collaboration with Erika Gideon Marchand from Listuguj\u2019s Mi\u2019gmag community, and with the help of the book <strong><em>Nta\u2019tugwaqanminen<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong>Our Story: Evolution of the Gespe\u2019gewa\u2019gi Mi\u2019gmaq<\/strong>. <\/em>Wela\u2019lin!<\/p>\n<p><em>Nta\u2019tugwaqanminen<\/em> provides evidence that the Mi\u2019gmaq of the Gespe\u2019gewa\u2019gi (Northern New Brunswick and the Gasp\u00e9 Peninsula) have occupied their territory since time immemorial. <a href=\"https:\/\/fernwoodpublishing.ca\/book\/ntatugwaqanminen\">Read more &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kvszt3g0-62fc700471d2e6882ff34a2a5be0e9d0\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-kvszt3g0-62fc700471d2e6882ff34a2a5be0e9d0{\nheight:2px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-kvszt3g0-62fc700471d2e6882ff34a2a5be0e9d0 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_heading '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-5t2o7z-b1c48f44a297ee7415cd23eadbd3ad6f\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-5t2o7z-b1c48f44a297ee7415cd23eadbd3ad6f{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-5t2o7z-b1c48f44a297ee7415cd23eadbd3ad6f .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-5t2o7z-b1c48f44a297ee7415cd23eadbd3ad6f .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-5t2o7z-b1c48f44a297ee7415cd23eadbd3ad6f av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Resource database<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-244ku7-cdd584f37712c45ad1e62a395b17abc4 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this will to take part in real decolonial efforts, Mandoline Hybride puts at the disposal this resource database which can be used as a starting point or reference for a better apprehension of the questions involving Indigenous communities from here and beyond.
