Land and Labor Acknowledgement

We acknowledge and honor the Chumash and Tongva peoples, the original and rightful caretakers of the land that Santa Monica College sits upon. We also recognize tribal connections to the lands where each of us is located today.

We acknowledge and honor the forced, unpaid labor of African human beings who were enslaved to build the foundations of this nation upon this land.

We acknowledge and honor the often unrecognized labors of People of Color who - despite having been interned, caged, captured and killed- have contributed to the prosperity and power that exists in the United States today.

We commit to justice by honoring our past to change our collective future.
