Woke stunt goes horribly wrong as Michigan Dems open convention with brutal ‘land acknowledgment’

LANSING, Mich. — A woke stunt went horribly wrong at Sunday’s Democratic Party Nominating Convention in Michigan as a top official opened the event with a brutal attempt at a "land acknowledgment." "I am here to offer our land acknowledgment," said Portia Roberson, the vice chair of the state's party, at the outset of the afternoon gathering of Democrats.

"Our land acknowledgments in Michigan recognize the state as the ancestral, traditional and contemporary land of the Anishinaabe, Three Fires Confederacy — " But she was cut off after an incorrect pronunciation of Anishinaabe when several audience members began shouting the correct pronunciation at Roberson, to which she replied, "Say it again for me."

"You do it better than me.

Make it — I'm big on names being pronounced right, so make sure I get it right." The audience member then repeated the pronunciation of the word Anishinaabe until Roberson successfully mimicked it into the microphone.

"Thank you.

Wait, don't sit down yet," she told the convention-goer.

"I might get another one wrong.

"Including the Odawa, Ottawa, Ojibwe, Chippewa and ...

Potawatomi," she said, sparking another round of audience shouting with a mispronunciation of the last tribe.

"See, usually I rehearse before I come out.

This time I rushed it and I didn't rehearse.

I apologize," Roberson admitted before exiting the stage.

The Democratic Party of Michigan did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment about the land acknowledgment or Roberson's pronunciation mishaps.
