MILE appreciates the support of its participants in furthering its efforts to promote literacy and equity
The Maryland Initiative for Literacy & Equity (MILE) is a collaboration between the University of Maryland and Morgan State University. The University of Maryland was built on the ancestral lands of the Piscataway People, and we echo the University of Maryland’s sentiments on this matter.
Every community owes its existence and strength to the generations before them, around the world, who contributed their hopes, dreams, and energy into making the history that led to this moment.
Truth and acknowledgement are critical in building mutual respect and connections across all barriers of heritage and difference.
So, we acknowledge the truth that is often buried: We are on the ancestral lands of the Piscataway People, who are the ancestral stewards of this sacred land. It is their historical responsibility to advocate for the four-legged, the winged, those that crawl and those that swim. They remind us that clean air and pristine waterways are essential to all life.
This Land Acknowledgement is a vocal reminder for each of us as two-leggeds to ensure our physical environment is in better condition than what we inherited, for the health and prosperity of future generations.
