In this episode, Assistant Director of the Purdue English Big Read, C.J. Tenniswood, sits down with Dr. Matt Morgenstern and PhD candidate, Rochel Bergman, to explore how Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass invites readers to rethink their relationship with the natural world. Together, they discuss what it means to learn from the land rather than simply about it, weaving perspectives on ecological ethics, Indigenous knowledge, and the power of language and story.
