The \u201cHonest Storytelling: St. Olaf at 150\u201d project grows out of St. Olaf\u2019s Land Acknowledgment statement and responds to the call by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America’s (ELCA) statement<\/a> to American Indian and Alaska Native people. The project commits to tell honest stories about the land and the Dakota people who lived here, and to tell other untold and under-told stories about the people and the place that have not yet had the wider hearing they deserve.<\/h5>\n
