Incorporation Palm (City of Miami birthplace): Race, immigration & community - meet at the hotel lobby

Group Submission Type: Off-site Visit

Description of Session

Learn about the roots of Miami's vibrant diversity at the "Incorporation Palm," the birthplace of the city. Planted by Cortada as a living monument, this site represents more than just the city's incorporation in 1896; it honors those who brought the city to life and those who work today to keep it growing. Join the artist in exploring the dynamics of Miami's multiculturalism, delving into its strengths as a majority-minority community, its tensions over time, and its role as a model for the future of the United States.
