The title, "The Seventh Fire," comes from the Seven Fires Prophecies that were given to the Anishinaabe people. This display features a timeline of the history of the Anishinaabe people as well as videos that show the many different perspectives on decolonization and Anishinaabe culture, including foodways, education, sovereignty and the challenges of living in a colonized world.

The exhibit was developed over several months by a dedicated committee of individuals from the Beaumier U.P. Heritage Center, Center for Native American Studies at NMU, Great Lakes Peace Center, the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan and the Native American Student Association.
