Kasey Keeler

Assistant Professor of Civil Society & Community Studies and American Indian Studies

Kasey Keeler, Ph.D., is an assistant professor with a joint appointment in the American Indian Studies Program and the School of Human Ecology at UW–Madison. She is an enrolled tribal citizen of the Tuolumne Band of Me-Wuk Indians and is a direct descendant of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. Her scholarship examines American Indian peoples’ access to land, mainly through the lens of suburbanization and property, while disrupting narratives of settler colonialism and challenging American Indian erasure. Dr. Keeler’s first book, “American Indians and the American Dream: Policies, Place, and Property in Minnesota,” will be published by the University of Minnesota Press in early 2023.
