Today is Indigenous People's Day. However, this week also marks the 122nd anniversary of the day a group of white folks burned down a village on the northern tip of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula, violently forcing the Cheboiganing Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians to flee for their lives.

A memorial at the University of Michigan Museum of Art commemorates the homes that were lost that day at Burt Lake. Directly across from the memorial wall, two paintings depict portals into an imagined future - one where Indigenous land is reclaimed. 

Andrea Carlson is the Ojibwe artist behind “Future Cache,” which will be on display at UMMA through June 2024. She joined the show to share her experience in implementing decolonization with institutions that so often fail to acknowledge Indigenous lives.

GUEST:

  • Andrea Carlson, painter of "Future Cache" from the Turtle Clan, descended from Grand Portage Ojibwe
