In the public's collective attempts to neatly decide upon and organize our cultural memory, many groups continue to have their history and cultures overlooked and underrepresented within the national consciousness. This results in part from a biased prioritization of which physical and intangible artefacts are worth preserving through repeated generations, and in this sense the fields of architecture and historic preservation are partially complicit in this injustice. This phenomenon particularly affects America's many minority groups, and perhaps no such group has faced as much oversight in the public consciousness as the American Indian. This thesis explores means through which minority cultural memory can be better presented in a wider scale and to a broader audience, and what roles architecture and its designers can take in increasing the scope of cultural narrative. The Cherokee tribe in North Carolina provides particularly valuable insight and opportunity for the study of promoting local culture, in part due to the tribe's unique geographic position, heavy degree of surviving intangible tradition, and especially long and storied role within American history. The use of contemporary community architecture comprises an especially large component of this study, with an emphasis on how to best address the nationwide Cherokee diaspora's renewing interest in the tribe's cultural memory, how contemporary construction can most eloquently respond to built environments which no longer survive in abundance, and how architecture can be better utilized to communicate local narrative.
