As the Brothertown Nation continues to struggle to regain their federal status, one thing to remember is that all Wisconsin history is indigenous history. However, not all Indigenous history is Wisconsin history. 

Learn more about the 12 Tribes of Wisconsin on Tuesday, May 14 at 6 p.m. in the McLane Room. Prefer to watch from home? Visit calendar.fdlpl.org to register for a Zoom link to watch this event.

The program will be presented by Dr. Renee Gralewicz, who is of Brothertown and Mohican descent. Her presentation will be a short look into the histories of Wisconsin’s 12 tribes.

No registration is needed to visit the event in person.
