Seeds of Justice & YoloSol Reading Group

YoloSol, a cultural arts and ecology collective, and St Martin’s Seeds of Justice program will lead discussion of the book Know We Are Here: Voices of Native California Resistance, edited by Terria Smith, a tribal member of the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians.

We will meet once a month on Tuesdays from 6:30-8pm at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church to reflect on how these stories shape our understanding of the Native Californian past, shed light on our current climate crisis, and might suggest pathways to a restorative future for the web of life here in the Yolo bioregion. (You can borrow or purchase a copy of the book from the Church of St. Martin, order from one of our local bookstores, or purchase it online, preferably directly from Heyday Books https://heydaybooks.com/catalog/know-we-are-here.) Discussions will focus on three sections of the book, which we would ask you to read before each in-person meeting:

March 26 – Histories of Resistance

April 9 – Place, Nature, and Wellness

May 7 – Solidarity

Please RSVP St. Martin’s (info@churchofstmartin.org) if you are interested in participating.
