About This Event

Join the editors and contributors from Nature’s Crossroads: The Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota for a conversation about our state’s rich environmental history. This new collection of essays by an interdisciplinary team of distinguished scholars traces the environmental dynamics that have woven the Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota together in a common history. Selected topics for this event include the boomtown riverfronts of Minneapolis and St. Paul that powered Minnesota’s growth in the 19th century, the complex politics of historic preservation at Grand Portage in the 20th century, and the tensions around nuclear power at Prairie Island that persist today.
