This guide would like to acknowledge that Harvard University is located on the traditional and ancestral land of the Massachusett, the original inhabitants of what is now known as Boston and Cambridge. We pay respect to the people of the Massachusett Tribe, past and present, and honor the land itself which remains sacred to the Massachusett People.
Additionally, between 1636 and 1783, more than 70 individuals were enslaved by Harvard leaders, faculty, and staff. May we honor their memory, and the memory of all the enslaved women, men, and children whose labor generated wealth that helped create the Harvard we know today.
Additional information on land acknowledgements and Harvard's history of slavery can be read on the Native Governance Center, HUNAP's Acknowledgement of Land and People statement, and Harvard's Legacy with Slavery Report.
