On Aug. 26, 2020, three months after the start of the George Floyd protests, the award-winning journalist and arts writer Alicia Inez Guzmán hosted an online panel discussion, titled “This is Not O’Keeffe Country,” which aimed to reassess Georgia O’Keeffe’s legacy in New Mexico from local Indigenous perspectives. At a time when museums across the country were issuing “diversity, equity and inclusion” statements and land acknowledgments in the wake of what many pundits were then calling “America’s racial reckoning,” Guzmán’s panel prompted the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum to reconsider its own institutional blind spots when it came to Indigenous histories.
