SUMMARY:20s/30s Book Group: Braiding Sweetgrass
DESCRIPTION:SUNDAY\, JANUARY 5 AND FIRST SUNDAYS IN JANUARY–APRIL\, 12:30–1:30 P.M.\, all meetings are at Leffler House except for Feb 2nd\, which is in St. Nicholas Building \nGather to read and learn from Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book\, “Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom\, Scientific Knowledge\, and the Teaching of Plants.” We will meet once per month from January – April to discuss select chapters of this collection of essays. This book group is hosted by the 20s & 30s group\, but all are welcome to join. “As a botanist\, Robin Wall Kimmerer has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation\, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass\, Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take us on ‘a journey that is every bit as mythic as it is scientific\, as sacred as it is historical\, as clever as it is wise.’” (Elizabeth Gilbert). Contact Julia at julia7cooper@gmail.com to RSVP. Even if you cannot make every meeting\, you are welcome to join! Stay tuned for a schedule of chapters which we will focus on for each meeting.
