Professor Sasha Maria Suarez is a direct descendant of the White Earth Ojibwe Nation and an assistant professor of History and American Indian Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She researches and writes from home, exploring how urban White Earth Ojibwe women's community organizing was essential to the strength of Minneapolis' urban Indigenous community and how they upheld Ojibwe identities in urban spaces through practices of home, family, and community. She is currently working on her first book, Making a Home in the City: White Earth Ojibwe Women and Community Organizing in Twentieth Century Minneapolis. Her work has appeared in the edited volume, Indian Cities: Histories of Indigenous Urbanization, and on UHA's The Metropole and BELT Magazine.
