Seeds of Resilience: the Cultural Dimension of Plant Biodiversity with Rowen White

Join Mohawk Seedkeeper Rowen White as she shares her insights about Indigenous seeds and their stewards across North America and her home community of Akwesasne in upstate NY; stories that embody the vision of relationality and kinship between humans and plants and explore the depth of the cultural dimension of plant biodiversity in North America. She will share the collective vision of intercultural healing that emerges when we center Indigenous leadership, traditional ecological knowledge, cultural memory, and sovereignty of living in relationship with the cultural inheritance of land, seeds, and other non-human kin.  Her uplifting stories from her work at the Indigenous Seedkeepers Network will paint an uplifting picture of inter-cultural climate sanity for the regenerative land stewardship movement in these times of great transformation.
