Review of Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer: A Journey Through Indigenous Wisdom

Karoline Bordeau unpacks Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, where Indigenous wisdom meet scientific exploration.  Kimmerer’s reflections on traditional teachings and ecological science offer a transformative perspective on the gifts of the land, the power of gratitude, and the importance of reciprocity. Jacob is struck by the idea that protecting nature is a response to the earth’s love for us, and he unwinds the concept of Indigenous languages animating the natural world through verbs, not nouns. Plus, Karoline gives us her Solo Review of The Year We Turned Forty by Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke, where three best friends are given the chance to relive a pivotal year of their lives, aiming for a happier turn in their stories.
