Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer
Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change by Sherri Mitchell — Weh’na Ha’mu Kwasset. Weh’na Ha’mu Kwasset means “she who brings the light,” and Sherri Mitchell does exactly that in this incredible tapestry of a book, which begins with Penawahpskek Nation creation stories and concludes with guidance on what it means to live in a time of prophecy. It is rare that a book so generously shares wisdom, much less wisdom about how we got to where we are, what needs mending, and what a path forward that’s grounded in ancestral ways of knowing and being might look like.

STORIES FROM A LEGEND: N. SCOTT MOMADAY by Carmella Padilla photos by Steven St. John. New Mexico Magazine. MOMADAY is laughing. With a deep, resonant, throw-your-head-back belly laugh, his pleasure fills the roundness of his face and the rectangular space of his southeast Santa Fe living room. He is telling the story of a story. “And so I tell my students, ‘I remember being on the Bering Land Bridge 20,000 years ago in the last Ice Age. It was cold. God, it was cold.’” He laughs again, lets the humor linger, then settles back into his more serious self. “I say that to emphasize the importance of cultural memory, of racial memory. I remember it. I imagine it. Imagine that.” https://www.newmexico.org/nmmagazine/articles/post/scott-momaday/
