Gustavus on Dakota Lands

Audience

Overview

Gustavus Adolphus College was founded in 1862 during the same months as the Dakota-U.S. War, which resulted in the removal of Dakota people from their homeland. Learn about the Dakota War and a two-year grant project that has brought together faculty, students, staff, Dakota leaders, and other community partners for a series of listening sessions and critical conversations about the college's presence on Dakota lands, its settler history, and its relationship with Dakota people today.

Speakers: Dr. Ursula Lindqvist and John Kellen
