"We at UCR would like to respectfully acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of this land, water, and air: the Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano peoples and all of their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. Today this meeting place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, including UCR faculty, students, and staff, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands."

> The Sandbox: A Southwest Writers Exchange
> Join Black Mountain Institute for a reading exchange between four Creative Writing Programs situated in the Southwest: The Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA), New Mexico State (NMSU), the University of California, Riverside (UC Riverside), and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). The Sandbox Exchange will feature two readers from each university. Please join us as we bring writers in conversation with one another for this virtual event. It is our hope to share what it looks like to be writing from our landscapes today and showcase our vibrant Southwest literary community.
