Honoring Indigenous Peoples’ Day at UMBC
UMBC is proud to honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day today and share resources for our community to help us reflect and incorporate respect and acknowledgement of Indigenous Peoples into the everyday work of the University. https://oei.umbc.edu/land-acknowledgement-statement/
Thank you to the faculty, staff, and students in the Land Acknowledgement Working Group of the Inclusion Council that compiled this list and are working on recommendations for how we use our Land Acknowledgement Statement as our basis for meaningful action. https://oei.umbc.edu/inclusion-council/
UMBC was established upon the land of the Piscataway and Susquehannock peoples. Over time, citizens of many more Indigenous nations have come to reside in this region. We humbly offer our respect to all past, present, and future Indigenous people connected to this place.
