Black Earth Wisdom: Soulful Conversations With Black Environmentalists

by Leah Penniman Author

This mix of essays and interviews explores how Black folks are deeply connected to the land, water, and climate—both spiritually and scientifically. Despite centuries of racial capitalism trying to break that bond, Black culture has always recognized the true value of nature. With pieces from heavy hitters like Pulitzer Prize winner Alice Walker, Queen Quet, Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, and Savi Horne, the vital link between nature and our survival is examined and explored in Black Earth Wisdom.
