DESCRIPTION:For a great many people, the human impact on the Earth-countless species 
 becoming extinct, pandemics claiming millions of lives, and the climate 
 crisis causing worldwide social and environmental upheaval-was not apparent 
 until recently. This is not the case for all people or cultures. For the 
 Indigenous people of the world, radical alteration of the planet, and of 
 life itself, is a story that is many generations long. They have had to 
 adapt, to persevere, and to be courageous and resourceful in the face of 
 genocide and destruction. Their experiences have given them a unique 
 understanding of civilization-based devastation. \n\nJoin author and 
 journalist Dahr Jamail and ecologist and activist-scholar Melissa K. Nelson 
 for a unique conversation exploring ideas from Indigenous voices at the 
 center of conversations about the current climate crisis. In their 
 conversation they discuss themes and perspectives from the book We Are the 
 Middle of Forever, an anthology of native voices which was co-edited by 
 Dahr and Stan Rushworth and features an essay by Melissa. The book draws on 
 interviews with people from different North American Indigenous cultures, 
 communities, generations, and geographic regions, who share their knowledge 
 and experience, their questions, their observations, and their dreams of 
 maintaining the best relationship possible to all of life.\n\nHear from 
 Melissa and Dahr as they share their own experiences as well other 
 perspectives featured in the anthology. Exploring the perspectives of those 
 who have long been attuned to climate change will be indispensable to those 
 looking for new and different ideas and responses to the challenges we all 
 face.\n\nFree, suggested donation of $10.\n
