Archiving Latinxs On The U.S. Great Plains - Coming To The Plains, Laurinda Weisse
Archiving Latinxs On The U.S. Great Plains - Coming To The Plains, Laurinda Weisse
Posters, Proceedings, and Presentations: CTR Library

Sunan Kalijaga: The Birth Of A Self-Actualized Pilgrimage Culture, F. P. Meachem
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

This has made an introduction to Islam in the archipelago even more difficult for the rare interested Western reader. Frustratingly, what is lost on the rest of the world is basically second nature to 155 million Javanese Muslims, who learn from their families, schools, and pilgrimages about the Wali Songo, a group of nine semi-mythical figures credited with spreading Islam to Java. When we stop casting …
