Braiding Sweetgrass Discussion

  • Virtual Program- On Zoom (map)

Join us for a Book Discussion of the Centre County Reads book, Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. This program is virtual and requires registration. Register online at the link below.

As a leading researcher in the field of biology, Robin Wall Kimmerer understands the delicate state of our world. But as an active member of the Potawatomi nation, she senses and relates to the world through a way of knowing far older than any science. In Braiding Sweetgrass, she intertwines these two modes of awareness--the analytic and the emotional, the scientific and the cultural--to ultimately reveal a path toward healing the rift that grows between people and nature. The woven essays that construct this book bring people back into conversation with all that is green and growing; a universe that never stopped speaking to us, even when we forgot how to listen.
