- Throughout the essays of 'Braiding Sweetgrass,' Robin Wall Kimmerer describes the beauty, interconnectedness, and knowledge of the natural world-and our place within it. Join us in conversation with the author as we discuss Indigenous science and knowledge, botany and responsibility, and plants as teachers, as we read her 2013 book this October for the #SciFriBookClub.

Robin Wall Kimmerer, Thank you for sharing this wisdom 🙏
Such a great book, one of the best ecological books ever written! Proud of you as an ESF alum, Dr. Kimmerer! BTW, the unfriendly concrete wall of Illick Hall feels the same.
Having read Braiding Sweetgrass and reading the story of Skywoman and thinking about the capsules and the Space Shuttle itself returning from space, I am thinking about a human actually falling from the sky. Perhaps a space funeral. A human body ejected from a spaceship. Entering the atmosphere. The body. The molecules. The elements would incandese. A ball of fire. Not Skywoman. But as Carl Sagan said, Star stuff. The elements returning to the Cosmos perhaps some to become life forms. Some to become rocks. Who can say.
