Land and Labor Acknowledgement Initiative

In order to better understand the culture, livelihoods, and living histories of Indigenous and African American communities in Southern Appalachia and the Southeast, UNG's Land & Labor Acknowledgment Initiative seeks to offer resources, fellowship, and support to members of our university community who identify as African American or Native American, as well as to local tribes and organizations.

By showcasing the university's most recent programs, activities, and resources that support Indigenous and African American research and teaching, we commit to work in partnership with and support these communities.

More information about this initiative, including acknowledgements, courses and workshops, committee members, and short- and long-term goals, will be added here when it becomes available.
