As part of the Finding Home series, the Wisconsin Academy is proud to partner with the Milwaukee Public Library to present a special event with Dr. Patty Loew (Bad River Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe), acclaimed author, journalist, and scholar of Indigenous studies and environmental justice.

Held in celebration of the paperback release of Seventh Generation Earth Ethics: Native Voices of Wisconsin, this event highlights the deep ties between ecological knowledge, cultural values, and place. The book features twelve Indigenous leaders—one from each of Wisconsin’s Native Nations—whose stories illuminate pathways of sustainability, stewardship, and resilience rooted in long-standing traditions.

This event is part of Wisconsin Academy's Finding Home series, a statewide programming series that explores the concept of home through the sciences, arts, and letters. As Wisconsin faces increasing housing insecurity, political polarization, and social disconnection, this series offers space for reflection, dialogue, and action around what it means to belong. From architecture to poetry, from climate migration to rural identity, Finding Home creates space for shared stories and resilient futures. 

This interdisciplinary series spans from fall 2025 through summer 2026 and will include public lectures, art exhibitions, workshops, magazine features, and local events in partnership with organizations across the state. All events will be open to the public, with hybrid and virtual options available for broader access.
