Hello good day.
Go for a run, a walk, or a ride. When you finish, see whose land you were on. The app is new, and we'd like to hear what you think.
When you finish
The land shows up with your miles.
Homelands puts the name of the land next to your run. You shouldn't have to finish and then go hunt for it.
The app
Here's what it does.
01
Record your miles
Run, walk, or ride. It keeps going if your phone locks. Afterward you can see your distance, pace, steps, and calories, and look back at it later.
02
See whose land
When you finish, the app tells you whose Indigenous land you crossed. You don't have to go look it up.
03
Look up a place
You can search more than 2,000 Indigenous territories, including Spokane. The lines on the map are approximate. They're there so people can learn.
04
Find other people
Share something you noticed, or find a public group run. While the app is new, you can add to it for free.
The lines on the map are approximate, and they're meant for learning. Map data from Native Land Digital.
In the app
On your phone.
Why it exists
A land acknowledgment is the starting line, not the finish line.
Most people and organizations treat a simple land acknowledgment as the end. Danny Brigman, a citizen of the Spokane Tribe, built Homelands Fitness for what comes next. The app is meant to be the guide on your path.
