El Chicago History Museum está ubicado en los terrenos ancestrales del pueblo Potawatomi. Ellos habitaban y cuidaban de estos terrenos hasta que fueron expulsados por los pobladores Europeos. Existen varias naciones que han mantenido una historia más larga con esta región por medios del comercio, migración y residencia: los Odawa, Ojibwe, Peoria, Kaskaskia, Miami, Sac y Fox, Kickapoo, Ho-Chunk y Menominee. Hay varios otros pueblos que pertenecen a esta lista, sin embargo, debido al genocidio y el etnocidio como resultado del colonialismo europeo y la expansión de los Estados Unidos, se ha perdido información crucial sobre esta gente Nativa. Actualmente, Chicago es el hogar para una numerosa poblacion indigena que ontinúa la tradición de honrar a esta tierra con sus ríos y celebrar su patrimonio cultural.
El Chicago History Museum reconoce las contribuciones de las comunidades indígenas y está comprometido a seguir colaborando
