Details

Flyer for Land and Labor Acknowledgement Speaker Series: Dr. James Owen ( DAH and Virtual )

Dr. Owen will discuss the purpose of a land acknowledgement and why these statements are important, especially at an institution like UNG, which played a particular role in the dispossession of Cherokee Nation in the early 19th century. Land acknowledgements are not about placing blame on Euro-American societies, but about acknowledging Native roles that have been historically overwritten.
