Vanderbilt University is built on the traditional territory of the Cherokee, Shawnee, and Yuchi peoples. This video, presented as a percursor to my Indigenous Rights course, walks through the story of their dispossession of that land and continuing survival as people to whom we owe a historical debt for the place on which we work and study.
