Integrating these spiritual exercises into your daily life may not give you “beach body” but can, we believe, help you to become “Cross Fit!”

Hear from Dr. Bryan Rindfleisch, Associate Professor in History, about the project that combines historical research and digital humanities tools to create an interactive virtual map of the greater Milwaukee area that will return and transform the many spaces and places of Milwaukee into an Indigenous space and place. This map takes present-day locations to illustrate their Indigenous roots, as well as their continued shaping by Milwaukee’s Indigenous community today. While in the formative stages, students and Dr. Rindfleisch, have identified 136 spaces and places in Milwaukee to be “Indigenized” and in multifaceted, multi-medium ways.
