LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

SignNexus recognizes that our work is primarily performed in Lenapehoking on the island of Mannahatta and that this is the ancestral unceded homeland of the Munsee Lenape peoples. The Lenape are a diasporic people that remain closely connected with this land and are its rightful stewards. Furthermore we acknowledge that New York City has one of the largest urban Native American and Indigenous populations in the United States. SignNexus recognizes these indigenous peoples, their displacement, dispossession, and their continued presence. Through this acknowledgment we reflect upon the ongoing legacies of settler colonialism, and express profound gratitude to those who have been living and working on this land from time immemorial. 

LABOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We recognize and acknowledge the labor upon which our country, state, and institutions are built. Much of the United States culture, economic growth, and development has been made possible by the labor of enslaved people who were kidnapped from the African continent; their ascendants who suffered the horrors of the transatlantic trafficking, chattel slavery, and Jim Crow; and the continued contribution of their survivors. We are indebted to their labor and sacrifice. We also acknowledge all immigrant and indigenous labor, including voluntary, involuntary, trafficked, forced, and undocumented peoples who contributed to the building of the country and continue to serve within our labor force. We recognize that our country is continuously defined, supported, and built upon by oppressed communities and peoples. We acknowledge labor inequities and the shared responsibility for combatting oppressive systems in our daily work.
