Monday, October 12, 2020 is Indigenous People's Day. Please join the CPGC in acknowledging, learning from, and supporting the work of indigenous-led community organizations.
This Indigenous People's Day, we invite you to join us in:
- Acknowledging the College's location on Lenni-Lenape land, recognizing the Lenape Cultural Center and learning about the Treaty of Renewed Friendship.
- Learning more about the important work of Cultural Survival. View the page Erica Belfi '21 recently developed on Cultural Survival and Indigenous Rights as part of our Global Solidarity and Local Actions Toolkit. Current students may consider applying for a summer 2021 internship with Cultural Survival. (Application processes will be announced in November).
- Registering for an upcoming event on October 28: Speaking, Writing, and Resisting: Celebrating Zapotec Language Activism. Learn more about how the Ticha Project team advances indigenous language activism and provides opportunities for students to learn and intern, while supporting community goals, periodically throughout the year.
