Land Acknowledgment of Florida State University
[edit]The Museum of Fine Arts, FSU is currently located on land that is considered ancestral territory of the Apalachee Nation, the Muscogee Creek Nation, the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida, and the Seminole Tribe of Florida.[2] The museum includes a statement that recognizes the historic trauma that has impacted these Nations, and current trauma induced by systemic inequities. A memorial with the recognition statement will be installed in the museum to reflect the acknowledgement of the department of the Indigenous Nations that were dispossessed of their lands, and yet still maintain resilience and strength of culture. While this is a small gesture, the museum is dedicated to fighting the silencing of the trauma caused by historic colonialism.[2]
