I acknowledge that I live and work on the unceded land of indigenous peoples and nations, including Mohegan, Mashantucket Pequot, Eastern Pequot, Schaghticoke, Golden Hill Paugussett, Niantic, and the Quinnipiac and other Algonquian-speaking peoples. A land acknowledgement is one small step, which only becomes meaningful when we work to be in good relation with the land and the people on whose traditional lands we live, study, and work.
