Route 66: Learn the Stories of the Land #Shorts

Along the pavement of Route 66, the stories of the land and its first stewards remain intertwined. Just off the iconic route lies Palisades Ranch, a stunning oasis within 120,000 acres preserved by Mojave Desert Land Trust. But the true soul of this landscape is its people. Through gatherings like California State University, San Bernardino’s California Native American Day Conference, Indigenous culture is celebrated and passed down through the ages. Ancestral practices remain a living legacy, with leaders like Yuhaaviatam Tribal Citizen, Trevor Mathews, and his family teaching bird songs to ensure these sacred traditions continue to thrive. 📹: @itsbereng on IG
