Description: 

We begin this meeting with acknowledgment of and honor for the many legacies that have impacted our community, particularly those buried over time.

Acknowledging truth is critical to building mutual respect and connection across all barriers of heritage and difference.

EASTERN stands within the Lenapehokink - the ancestral homeland of the Lenni Lenape civilization. Their people were, and still are, caretakers of this land and its rivers, and their legacy continues. We pay respect to their elders past and present.

Our community owes its existence and vitality to generations from around the world who contributed their hopes, dreams, and energy to making the history that led to this moment.

Some were brought here against their will, some were drawn to leave their distant homes in the hope of a better life, and some have lived on this land for more generations than can be counted.

Please take a moment to consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us together and as a community committed to equity and social justice that fosters intellectual curiosity and discourse, join us in uncovering such truths.
