Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

No one is more surprised than Robin Wall Kimmerer that the book of essays she sent unsolicited to a small nonprofit publisher became one of the biggest word-of-mouth sensations of the 21st century so far. Jeff and Rebecca trace the Braiding Sweetgrass phenomenon and reflect on the ways Kimmerer blends Indigenous philosophy and practice with scientific knowledge to imagine new ways of living together and responding to environmental crises.
