This presentation will discuss three interrelated foci on land justice for all: First, the history of colonialism in South Africa and the subsequent loss of the land (the Land Act of 1942) and the forceful removal of Indigenous communities from their mineral rich areas, relocating them to arid areas where the land was not suitable for community sustenance. Drawing from Desai (2002), we share the vignettes of communities in KwaZulu-Natal, who struggle for land justice for all in post-apartheid. Second, we will share how Liberia’s tensions between the Indigenous communities and Americo-Liberian settlers around land rights have impacted access to resources, including education, and contributed to the civil wars. Through the inclusion approach, we will examine the connection between post-war land rights and education policy. Third, we discuss land acknowledgments, which have become a common practice in higher education settings as a way to recognize Indigenous peoples whose ancestral lands campuses occupy. We discuss their limitations, potential for superficiality, and unintended consequences. We provide suggestions to move beyond land acknowledgements to center the lived realities, rights, and self-determination of Indigenous peoples as they fight for land justice for all.
