LAND AND LABOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Reforme U is currently based in what is known as the United States and wants to acknowledge the unceded land that it currently occupies in order to help decolonize spaces, recognize indigenous stewardship of the land, air, and water we claim as our own, and to combat the invisibility and erasure of Indigenous peoples.

We also acknowledge that much of our country’s culture, economic growth, and development throughout history has been made possible by the violent, coercive, and exploitative forced labor of indigenous peoples, enslaved Africans, Chinese, Japanese, and Indian immigrants, and migrant workers from the Philippines, Mexico, and Central and South America.
