Students will complete a ‘living’ land acknowledgement, writing 500-700 words describing their relationship and connection to the place they currently live. This should include recognition of what/whose traditional Indigenous/treaty territory you reside in and how that recognition figures into your relation to that place (or doesn’t). While not mandatory, creative elements can also be included, such as photos, maps, or really anything that helps further represent your connection and relationship to place.
This is an informal assignment, and while it may look like a more traditional land acknowledgment for some, for others, it could be a brief autobiography of their relationship to their home.

Task Specifics:
1. Write a 500-700 land acknowledgement of where you currently reside;
2. Be sure to include the Indigenous/treaty territory of this land and how your own relationship to this place does or does not intersection with this fact;
3. Ensure you have cited at least one source in APA style (in-text and reference page)
4. Ensure the whole assignment is formatted to APA style (double-spaced, title page, etc);
5. Review the assignment for clarity of language, correct use of terminology, development of ideas and clear paragraph structure;
6. Submit the assignment as a Word document (or PDF) in the assignment section of your course shell on the specified due date.
