Land

& Labor Recognition

We acknowledge that much of our work takes place on the territory and ancestral lands of the Council of the Three Fires: the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations. We also acknowledge our debt to enslaved Africans, whose labor and suffering built and grew the economy and infrastructure of a nation that refuses to recognize our humanity. We are inviting you to take a moment to reflect on whose land you are living and working on, and if you do not know, to research and reflect. Learn more about the native lands you reside on at Indigenous Tribes of Chicago | ALA,  Indigenous Chicago, and American Indian Center Chicago.
