Michigan State University occupies the ancestral, traditional, and
contemporary Lands of the Anishinaabeg - Three Fires Confederacy of Ojibwe,
Odawa, and Potawatomi peoples. In particular, the University resides on Land
ceded in the 1819 Treaty of Saginaw. We recognize, support, and advocate for
the sovereignty of Michigan's twelve federally-recognized Indian nations,
for historic Indigenous communities in Michigan, for Indigenous individuals
and communities who live here now, and for those who were forcibly removed
from their Homelands. The Center for Regional Food Systems affirms
Indigenous sovereignty and will work to hold Michigan State University more
accountable to the needs of American Indian and Indigenous peoples.
"We've learned that quiet isn't always peace, and the norms and notions of
what just is isn't always just-ice...But one thing is certain, if we merge
mercy with might, and might with right, then love becomes our legacy, and
change our children's birthright." - excerpt from National Youth Poet
Laureate Amanda Gorman's poem "The Hill We Climb"
