A new travel guide invites visitors to explore tribal history along the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail. Created by the American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association in collaboration with the National Park Service, the guide highlights Indigenous communities in Arizona and California, emphasizing resilience and cultural heritage. It features contributions from 11 tribes in Arizona and 49 federally recognized tribes in California. The guide includes maps, traditional place names, and details on museums and cultural centers.
We provide the independent reporting that non-Native, extractive outlets often overlook. We give our communities the context and the facts they need to make informed decisions.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government decision-making for everyone who cares about transparency about Native issues. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise. Every gift helps keep the fire burning. A monthly contribution makes the biggest impact.
