Resource Central and the Environmental Center at the University of Colorado Boulder are teaming up to divert thousands of pounds of material from landfills this year during the CU student move out. Since 2019, an estimated 65,000 lbs of dorm materials have been diverted from landfills through this program. This year, the range of accepted items has been broadened, which will likely result in an increase in the amount of pounds collected. We will bring these items back to our Materials Reuse Facility, where they will be available for the public to shop at a sharply discounted rate.

In this 2-hour participatory program, we experience the history of the colonization of Turtle Island, the land that is now known as the United States. The story is told through the words of Indigenous leaders, European/American leaders, and Western historians. We engage with this history through experiential exercises and small group discussions. And we are invited to consider how we can build relationships with Indigenous peoples based on truth, respect, justice, and our shared humanity. Facilitated by TRR's Native and non-Native teams. Appropriate for high school students and adults.
