Indigenous Wisdom: Respect and Appropriation
November 5, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Hugh Taft-Morales
Leader, Philadelphia Ethical Society
Many of our harvest-season traditions have been crafted through selective appropriation of Native American culture. That culture informs how we frame our Thanksgiving holiday and the gratitude we profess—for nature’s gifts, in particular. Drawing on Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book Braiding Sweetgrass, Hugh will explore the potential for transcending superficial appropriation and achieving a deeper understanding of relationships, sustainability, and our place in the natural world.
In person at 1906 Rittenhouse Square.
We ask that in-person attendees be up-to-date on vaccinations and remain masked.
From 2pm – 2:30pm hear just the platform address live on Zoom!
