>SPECIAL< the Understory: Braiding Sweetgrass
Each month we read a different book based around nature, justice, and community. This month is the ever popular: Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants, by Robin Wall Kimmerer
“This book weaves together traditional Indigenous knowledge with modern scientific understanding to explore our relationship with plants and the natural world. Kimmerer argues that caring for the earth is a reciprocal relationship that benefits both humans and nonhuman beings.”
Anyone who has read any portion of this month’s selection (at any point of time) is welcome to join!
This meeting of The Understory will be held at Hot Lips Pizza! Join us there at 2211 SE Hawthorne Blvd, Portland, OR 97214. For this night, 15% of Dine-in proceeds go to Bark, from 4 – 9PM!
