The United States Eventing Association acknowledges that many of the lands upon which we ride, compete, and train are lands that in the past have been worked or stewarded by enslaved people, indigenous groups, indentured laborers, and others from whom land was taken or who performed coerced labor. We recognize the losses of those people and the fact that many descendants remain in our communities today.
