February 15: Listening to Indigenous Wisdom in this Time of Disruption

8:00-9:30am Central US - MORE INFORMATION/REGISTER HERE

On February 15, award-winning reporter and author, Dahr Jamail joins us for a powerful conversation. Dahr is co-authoring, shepherding a book with Stan Rushworth: The Changing Earth: Indigenous Voices From Turtle Island is an innovative work of research and reportage that will present, via powerful and intimate encounters, the perspective of Indigenous peoples of the United States and Canada on the Earth's climate and interrelated Covid-19 emergencies.

The book emerges from how Indigenous peoples' experience has given them a unique understanding of civilizational devastation, one that has endowed them with knowledge and solutions that present both radical and pragmatic responses to crises beyond anything known before.

"He is a superb journalist, in the most honorable tradition of that craft." -Howard Zinn

Dahr is also author of The End of Ice: Bearing Witness and Finding Meaning in the Path of Climate Disruption, one of Smithsonian Magazine’s 10 Best Science Books of 2019.

At CPL, we consider conversation as a core process and tool for transformation. We use the principles of The Art of Convening as a “true north” guide to how we want to BE as humans, seeking authentic engagement and community.
