Mapping Milwaukee
Mapping tells stories that help us understand our local landscape, including the legacy local policies and practices have left & the resources our local communities continue to show up with.

Our Mapping Projects
Through Kumu, we map connections in our local food system. These maps are an ever-evolving narrative that consider where our community assets are.

Story Mapping
In collaboration with Reggie Jackson
To understand how we got here, story maps narrate the historical memory of policies and practices that impact the lives of Milwaukee. Reggie also narrates the every day survival and resistance of people that make up our food system, in particular, local Black families' experiences.
