"Collaboration is key. I welcome Native American opinions and guidance as I continue my work to educate people about the irreversible damage settler colonialism in Utah has caused. The same goes for Utah citizens whose ancestors were among the Mormon pioneers. I encourage and value open discussions, as they are a crucial part of fostering a better understanding of the past and ensuring that all voices are heard," -Phillip B Gottfredson
