SUMMARY:Reading and Conversation: “Under the Campus\, the Land”
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation on Anishinaabe Futuring\, Colonial Non-Memory and the Origin of the University of Michigan. \nIn the 1817 Treaty of Fort Meigs\, Anishinaabe leaders granted land to a college where their children could be educated. At the time\, the colonial settlement of Anishinaabe homeland hardly extended beyond Detroit in what settlers called the “Michigan Territory.” Four days after the Treaty of Fort Meigs was signed\, the First College of Michigania was founded to claim the Anishinaabe land grant. Four years later\, the newly-chartered University of Michigan would claim this land. By the time the University of Michigan moved to Ann Arbor in 1837\, Anishinaabe people had been forced to cede almost all their land in what had become the state of Michigan\, now inhabited by almost 200\,000 settlers. \nAndrew Herscher’s recent book\, Under the Campus\, the Land (University of Michigan Press\, March\, 2025)\, narrates the University of Michigan’s place in both Anishinaabe and colonial history\, tracing the University’s participation in the colonization of Anishinaabe homeland\, Anishinaabe efforts to claim their right to an education\, and the university’s history of disavowing its responsibilities to Anishinaabe people. \nAndrew Herscher and Bethany Hughes will discuss the book and the questions it raises about the University of Michigan’s history and future. \nFree and open to the public\, no registration required.
