Kristin Fitzgerald is interested in the religious syncretism and inculturation practiced among Lakota Episcopalian urban Indians in Rapid City, South Dakota. Her preliminary fieldwork began in the summer of 2006, and she will live in Rapid City from June 2009-June 2010 for her long-term ethnographic study. Drawing on the fields of ethnohistory, ritual and symbolic analysis, urban sociology and anthropology, she aims to complete the first study of urban Christian American Indians.
