The University of Washington exists on the unceded lands and waters of the Lushootseed speaking Peoples - the Duwamish, Muckleshoot, Suquamish, Snoqualmie, Tulalip,
and Puyallup- and I am grateful to live and work as a guest on these lands. This land acknowledgement is one small act in the ongoing process of working to be in good
relationship with the land and the people of the land. At the same time, it must be recognized that material and community-centered actions are needed to address authentic
change for these communities.
"ways for humans to practice being in right relationship to our home and each other, to practice complexity, and grow a compelling future together through relatively
simple interactions.... how we intentionally change in ways that grow our capacity to embody the just and liberated worlds we long for"
