The environmental crisis we face is real. In Sand Talk, Aboriginal scholar and artist Tyson Yunkaporta illustrates what can be gained by viewing global systems through the lens of Indigenous Knowledge. Community and connection over individualism and fragmentation, respect for the land, recognizing the oneness of everything. As he writes: “The whole is intelligent, and each part carries the inherent intelligence of the entire system.” Time for dialog, time for cultural humility, as we deepen our understanding of sustainable systems.
