The Circle is within both the Onondaga homelands and the reservation protected by the 1794 Treaty of Canandaigua. In this session, Joe Heath, legal counsel of the Onondaga Nation, will discuss the global history behind Syracuse&#8217;s Columbus monument from the 1930&#8217;s to present, and focus on the current lawsuit against the city of Syracuse to prevent the city from moving the monument. You will learn more about the Onondaga Nation\u2019s motion for Amicus (friend of the court) in the case and what may happen next depending on Judge Neri\u2019s ruling. The Nation and its citizens have been subjected to 100s of years of colonial destruction and this monument insults the historic trauma of colonialism.<br>Speaker &#8211; Joe Heath, General Counsel of the Onondaga Nation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Register here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZElcOyqqT4qE9KFKnyQz3qhcSHNZazI7g3P\">https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZElcOyqqT4qE9KFKnyQz3qhcSHNZazI7g3P<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Session II Thursday March 24 from 7-8:30pm, Why Removing Monuments Matters: Seeking Justice in Syracuse<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This workshop will examine the historical impact of monuments as powerful political symbols, and the evolution of shifting attitudes toward removing oppressive statues. Guest speakers will share the success story of the removal of three Columbus monuments in Chicago. The history of the Syracuse monument, controversies that continue to create divisiveness in our community and the long-time activism aimed at removing this symbol of colonialism and racism, will be highlighted. We will conclude with a discussion of how we can continue to support the goal of removing the statue and creating a circle that honors diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speakers include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Anna Tiburzi, (MLA-LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE, ESF\/S.U.), whose ESF capstone was, &#8220;Monuments and the Politics of Memory.&#8221;<\/li><li>Gabriel Piedmonte, Founder and president of the Italian American Heritage Society of Chicago, dedicated to promoting Italian heritage and progressive values, and which received national press for its support of the removal of Christopher Columbus statues.<\/li><li>Damayanti Wallace, Co-Founder GoodKids MadCity, a Chicago youth group which formed after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, and is dedicated to fighting violence and supporting their community during the pandemic, and whose activism aided in the removal of three Columbus monuments.<\/li><li>Grace Fritzke, (MS, Communities and Identities, S.U.\/Religion) whose thesis was, \u201cColumbus [as a] Circle And Sk\u00e4\u2022no\u00f1h As An Ellipsis: A Case Study On Shifting The Interpretive Center In Syracuse, New York.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Register here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZAtfuqgqzMrG9aJoBRNSagkRBODOZdVL1GN\">https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZAtfuqgqzMrG9aJoBRNSagkRBODOZdVL1GN<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>NOON acknowledges that we are on the territory of the Onondaga Nation, council fire of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>We are thankful for their stewardship of our environment.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EVENTS:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sninews.org\/2022\/02\/11\/peter-jemison-announces-retirement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>After More Than 35 Years, Peter Jemison Announces His Retirement as Ganondagan State Historic Site Manager<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sninews.org\/2022\/02\/11\/peter-jemison-announces-retirement\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ganondagan.org\/Learning\/virtual-programming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Virtual Programming- Ten Minute Teachings<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong>&#8211;

Through the use of meaningful quotes, and blankets that represent part of Turtle Island (the Western Hemisphere), we explore this shared history that most people rarely learn in traditional settings. We engage in a conversation about the European colonization of Turtle Island in order to deepen our understanding of the denial of Indigenous peoples&#8217; nationhood throughout U.S. History. NOON is offering this exercise to groups, organizations, schools and churches. A good will offering to support NOON&#8217;s work is appreciated.
