Land Acknowledgment Statement

We acknowledge that the ISU Writing Center exists on the occupied territory of the Wea People of the Miami Tribe. Other tribes who have lived in this region include the Kickapoo, Piankashaw, Delaware, Sioux, and Kaskaskia. We recognize that our presence here is a result of the forced cession of land by Wea Chief Jacco Godfroy and the Wea People in 1809. Most of the Wea People were forced to leave Indiana along with other Indigenous peoples, dividing the Miami Nation into two tribes, the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma and the Miami Nation of Indians of the State of Indiana. We pay respect to the Wea People and the Miami Tribe, acknowledging the painful history of forced displacement and the ongoing oppression of Indigenous peoples. We also recognize the vibrant present and future of the Miami Tribe. We support the 6,000 individuals currently enrolled in the Miami Nation of Indians of the State of Indiana in their efforts to regain the federal recognition that was stripped from them in 1899, and we affirm our committment to lifting up and honoring the language, culture, and traditions of Indiana's Indigenous peoples.
