Description
It took just a hundred years time to devastate thousands of years of knowledge and culture when colonizers stole North America from the indigenous peoples. To this day, much of the Western world ignores their Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), which holds many solutions to our climate crisis. What if agribusinesses healed the soil, instead of depleting it? What if designers knew how to make their own inks from plants, papers from grasses, and other objects without damaging the planet? What if what we made with Gaia’s gifts regenerated her like the Buffalo does the soil? Lakota designer Sadie Red Wing explains more about all of this and more in this episode of Climify.
