Statue of James Cook (Anchorage, Alaska)

The Captain Cook Monument is a life-size bronze statue of Captain James Cook installed in Anchorage, Alaska's Resolution Park.

In 1976, a statue of James Cook created by Derek Freeborn was installed in Resolution Park in Downtown Anchorage.

[5] In the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd, some residents sought the removal of the statue due to Cook's links to colonialism and exploitation of Indigenous people.

[6][7] On June 25, 2020, Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz stated that the native village of Eklutna would determine the monument's fate.
