Land Acknowledgement
We acknowledge that the land on which we live and work in and around Stanford University is the ancestral and unceded land of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe. As uninvited guests on these lands, we are beneficiaries of the ongoing displacement of the Ohlone people. We pay our respects to the Native peoples, past and present. The Muwekma Ohlone Tribe is seeking to restore federal recognition of their sovereignty. Learn more at http://muwekma.org.
