• Towards Recognition and University-Tribal Healing (TRUTH)

  "A 2020 High Country News report catalogued more than 99 percent of all Morrill Act acres, identifying their original tribal inhabitants and the principal raised for university endowments through the sale of those lands. Their study revealed that in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the United States awarded 10.7 million acres - acquired from 245 tribal communities through 162 violence-backed land cessions - to 52 land-grant colleges, which in turn raised over $17 million for their endowments. In exchange, the U.S. paid tribal nations less than $400,000." - Description from the TRUTH Story Map
