</span></h3> <p dir="ltr"><span style="color:#000000">Wide-scale U.S. higher education began in 1862 when the Morrill Act provided each state with “public” lands to sell for the establishment of university endowments. The public land-grant university movement is lauded as the first major federal funding for higher education and for making liberal and practical education accessible to Americans of average means. However hidden beneath the oft-told land-grant narrative is the land itself: the nearly 11 million acres of land sold through the Morrill Act was expropriated from tribal nations. <span style="color:#000000">This two-part forum examines the 150,000 acres of Indigenous land that funded the University of California, how this expropriation is intricately tied to California’s unique history of Native dispossession and genocide, and how UC continues to benefit from this wealth accumulation today.</span> We will then explore current university initiatives with tribes and engage in a community dialogue on actions the University of California can take to address their responsibility to California Indigenous communities.</span></p> </div></div></div></div> </div> </div> <div class="panel-pane pane-fieldable-panels-pane pane-vuuid-98e9c39e-3c7b-429b-a8a2-056c3b4e3cd2 pane-bundle-openberkeley-widgets-promo clearfix" > <div class="pane-content"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-promo fieldable-panels-pane openberkeley-widgets-color-scheme-founders-rock"> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTTT4bzLbP4nbhwKw8aB2K1roOiYLhjkW" class="openberkeley-widgets-image-link"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label-inner"> <h2>View event recordings here</h2> </div> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="panel-pane pane-fieldable-panels-pane pane-vuuid-b2b0c94e-d328-4c75-b3ca-810443bbb902 pane-bundle-openberkeley-widgets-promo clearfix" > <div class="pane-content"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-promo fieldable-panels-pane openberkeley-widgets-color-scheme-web-lap-lane"> <a href="https://cejce.berkeley.edu/speaker-bios" class="openberkeley-widgets-image-link"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label-inner"> <h2>Speaker Bios</h2> </div> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="panel-pane pane-fieldable-panels-pane pane-vuuid-6b3a26f8-61a0-4c61-ab99-2f4c6a39f43b pane-bundle-openberkeley-widgets-thumbnail-list clearfix" > <div class="pane-content"> <div class="fieldable-panels-pane openberkeley-widgets-thumbnail-list openberkeley-widgets-thumbnail-size-large"> <div class="field field-name-field-openberkeley-widgets-thumb field-type-field-collection field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="entity entity-field-collection-item field-collection-item-field-openberkeley-widgets-thumb clearfix"> <div class="content row"> <div class="col-sm-4"> <div class="field field-name-field-openberkeley-widgets-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="openberkeley-brand-widgets-thumbnail" src="https://cejce.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/styles/openberkeley_brand_widgets_thumbnail/public/bigimage_large.jpg?itok=CmtibQfm&timestamp=1597436197" width="768" height="512" alt="A red shape of the united states map with white letters saying Land Grab Universities" /></div></div></div> </div> <div class="col-sm-8"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label-inner"> <h2><a href="https://www.hcn.org/issues/52.4/indigenous-affairs-education-land-grab-universities" class="openberkeley-widgets-thumbnail-link">Read the High Country News Article on Land Grab Universities </a></h2> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="field-item odd"><div class="entity entity-field-collection-item field-collection-item-field-openberkeley-widgets-thumb clearfix"> <div class="content row"> <div class="col-sm-4"> <div class="field field-name-field-openberkeley-widgets-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="openberkeley-brand-widgets-thumbnail" src="https://cejce.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/styles/openberkeley_brand_widgets_thumbnail/public/1200px-landgrantcollegecentennial.svg.png?itok=n7dbrRnr&timestamp=1597436567" width="768" height="512" alt="seal saying Land Grant Colleges and State Universities" /></div></div></div> </div> <div class="col-sm-8"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label"> <div class="openberkeley-widgets-label-inner"> <h2><a href="https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/history-of-education-quarterly/article/entangled-pasts-landgrant-colleges-and-american-indian-dispossession/79E42113A0A51B21903DFB1229F7DE88" class="openberkeley-widgets-thumbnail-link">Read Entangled Pasts: Land-Grant Colleges and American Indian Dispossession By Margaret A.
