#7 WRITING AS AN OFFERING: Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass

This is the first lecture for the 2024 Fall session of ENGLISH 1110 for The Ohio State University, taught by PhD Candidate Peyton Del Toro. Here, we focus on Robin Wall Kimmerer’s beautiful contributions to the world with her book on indigenous stories and the science of ecology, titled Braiding Sweetgrass. We’ll start with the “Planting Sweetgrass” section of the book! For a deeper dive on the “Skywoman Falling” section of the book, check out my very first episode titled “SCI-FI AS RE-STORY-ATION.”
