Acknowledging the Land

Dr. Cori Bazemore-James will discuss when, how, why, and why not to use land acknowledgement statements. She will share her perspectives, research, excellent examples, and the practices she personally uses. Attendees will learn the following about land acknowledgements: their meaning, what they should entail, who should do them, where to do them, the argument for not doing them, and the responsibilities that go along with them.

This event is co-sponsored by PSU’s Center for Diversity, Equity, and Social Justice.
