ArguetaCoordinator of Education Programs and Community Engagement\n\n\n\nIngrid E. Argueta was born in Guatemala and immigrated to Miami when she was 7 years old. Although not a native Miamian\, she is a 305-er at heart. Ingrid has remained true to her indigenous roots and is passionate about Native American history and culture. She is best known for her eco-history tours of Miami’s historic sites\, neighborhoods\, and waterways. Ingrid currently serves as Museum of Miami’s Coordinator of Education Programs and Community Engagement and has been with the museum for 10 years. \n\n\n\n\n\nFola Akinde2023 Islandia AIR\n\n\n\nFola Akinde is a Miami-based interdisciplinary artist focused on ideas of Black hauntology as it relates to memory\, history\, and conceptions of liberation. Their Nigerian cultural background has inspired an interest in archives and research related to the Black diaspora\, including history and folklore related to Nigeria\, the US\, Caribbean\, and Latin America. \n\n\n\nFola’s work was featured in the Spring Undergraduate Exhibition at SAIC Galleries\, and they were awarded an Ellie from Oolite Arts in 2022. Much of their work is focused on the importance of expanding the idea of what an archive is\, its accessibility\, and how that documentation can play a role in (re)assemblage of imagery and memory. Incorporating archival items like found imagery\, objects\, writings\, and ephemera\, Fola has reconfigured their own conceptions of narratives\, mythology\, and illuminate connections to sites and spiritual practices. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibilityTo request materials in accessible format\, sign language interpreters\, and/or any disability accommodation\, please contact Hana Squires\, Accessibility Coordinator\, at accessibility@museumofmiami.org or call (305) 375-1621 at least two weeks in advance of your visit to initiate your request.

But Florida\, one of the first states to secede\, played several key roles in the war. A hotbed of slavery\, it was the site of a bitterly contested federal fort\, its vast coastline proved nearly impossible for the Union to blockade\, and it saw an important battle – Olustee – where atrocities against Union soldiers of color were committed. In this thought-provoking conference\, leading historians will explore the issues of slavery and freedom\, battles and leaders\, and war and reconstruction in Florida – one of the last states to cling to rebellion and slavery. The Presidential Symposium will take place from 2:00-4:00 p.m. and a reception will follow from 4:00-5:30 p.m. Pre-registration is recommended as seating is limited. \n\n\n\nOur Moderator & Panelists:\n\n\n\n\nHarold Holzer\, ModeratorJonathan F.
