Robin Kimmerer: What Plants Teach Us

Botanist, professor, and enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, Robin Wall Kimmerer joins us in studio for a conversation with Professor and Poet Laureate Brandy Nalani McDougall. In this discussion, Kimmerer unpacks her research journey in ethnic ecology and recent publication covering land justice and indigenous knowledge. Their discussion dives into topics that include indigenous science, cultural erasure and preservation, plant culture, and restoration of relationships to land.

A SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor of Environmental Biology and the founder of the Center for Native Peoples and the Environment, Kimmerer has won the John Burroughs Medal for outstanding nature writing and a MacAurthur “genius” grant.
