Abenaki Trails in College Brook Ravine

The College Brook Ravine Abenaki trails and bridge markers were installed in October 2022, before Indigenous People’s Day weekend in Durham, NH. For the last three years (2019-2022) members of INHCC and tribal leaders of the Cowasuck Band of the Pennacook Abenaki People worked with the University of New Hampshire to realize this project. The project was completed with the help of a grant from the American Council for Learned Societies through the Center for the Humanities (UNH), titled “BIPOC Monumentality in New Hampshire.” The Center for the Humanities is hosting an informational webpage about the trails on campus.
