In a storytelling performance, Robin Wall Kimmerer, a scientist and author of Braiding Sweetgrass, shares how interactions with snapping turtles gave her insights into humans’ relationship with nature and what we can do about climate change. This reading, accompanied by live music and animation, was part of the New York Times Climate Forward event.

The one book that changed my experience of self last year is Braiding Sweetgrass. Listening to her words in her voice is both shaking and awakening — what if kinship can rekindle our lost humanness.

I am glad to share that a collaboration started last year with TartAmare (https://www.tartamare.org/), which has been active in Tuscany to learn with the sea turtle — what kinship means, and how we might be in relationship with this more-than-human life.

Join us this summer for this lab residency, where we will learn form this more-than-human teacher. (see link to residency in the comments)

I hope we could paddle together.

The Soul’s Mycelium: Ritual, Reconciliation, and the Healing of the Story of Separation
I am deeply looking forward to this opportunity to share our work in Colombia with Re-Conectando, where we have woven together The Work That Reconnects, Theatre of the Oppressed, and Healing Rituals in service of peace and reconciliation.
Through stories born from Colombia’s Truth Commission and from community rituals that honor both grief and resilience, Héctor Aristizábal explores how theatre, spirituality, and ecology can interlace to heal the wounds of separation. This lecture is both a testimony and an invitation — to remember that reconciliation extends beyond victims and perpetrators, reaching toward the larger reconciliation between humanity and the living Earth. https://events.humanitix.com/hector-melbourne?
