    Join us on Tuesday, August 8 for a presentation by Dr. Amy Rosebrough, staff archaeologist Wisconsin Historical Society. 

    For thousands of years, Lake Mendota's clear waters held a secret. A chance encounter—one of the few divers with expertise in ancient canoe design stopping right over the exposed end of one canoe—revealed the astonishing truth. Dugout canoes, lost and abandoned, lay along ancient shorelines several hundred feet off of the lake's south shore. These canoes, painstakingly fashioned from elm and oak trees using stone or copper tools, were sailed on the lakes between 3,000 and 800 years ago. They testify to the deep history of Wisconsin's Native peoples, and their enduring connection to Wisconsin's waterways. Two canoes have been recovered to date by the Wisconsin Historical Society, and will represent a centerpiece of Wisconsin's planned History Center.

    About. Dr. Rosebrough:

    Dr. Amy Rosebrough is a Staff Archaeologist with the Office of the State Archaeologist at the Wisconsin Historical Society. A native of the Missouri Ozarks, she has long had an interest in burial monuments and archaeology. She is an alumni of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and she received her doctorate for region-wide re-analysis of Wisconsin's effigy mounds and mound builders. She has worked as an archaeologist in the academic, private, and public sectors. In her current position at the Wisconsin Historical Society, she manages archaeological and burial sites data, assists Wisconsin's citizens with archaeological questions, and serves as a subject matter expert.

    Join us on Tuesday, September 12 for a presentation by Sergio M. González, Assistant Professor of History, Marquette University.

    The 2020 Census marked a turning point in Wisconsin history as Latinos for the first time became the state’s largest minority. Their presence in the Midwest, however, is anything but new, as Latinos have travelled to and settled across the region since the late nineteenth century. This presentation explores that history, examining how migrants, immigrants, and refugees from across the America have built resilient communities across Wisconsin’s farms, towns, and urban spaces, and in the process transformed America’s Dairyland.

    About Sergio M. González:

    Sergio M. González is Assistant Professor of History in the Departments of History and Languages, Literatures, and Cultures at Marquette University. A historian of twentieth-century U.S. immigration, labor, and religion, his scholarship focuses on the development of Latino communities in the U.S. Midwest. He is the author of Mexicans in Wisconsin (Wisconsin Historical Society Press, 2017) and the co-editor of Faith and Power: Latino Religious Politics Since 1945 (NYU Press, 2022) with Felipe Hinojosa and Maggie Elmore. His current project, Strangers No Longer: Latino Belonging and Faith in 20th Century Wisconsin (University of Illinois Press, under contract), explores the relationship between Latino communities, religion, and social movements in the twentieth century Midwest. González has bridged his academic scholarship to community organizing by serving as a founder of the Dane Sanctuary Coalition as well as serving as the board president of Voces de la Frontera Action, the political action arm of Wisconsin’s largest and most active membership-based immigrant justice organization.
