In reflections that range from the creation of Turtle Island to the forces that threaten its flourishing today, she circles toward a central argument: that the awakening of ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings will we be capable of understanding the generosity of the earth, and learn to give our own gifts in return. 650 $a Nature $x Effects of human beings on. 650 $a Philosophy of nature. 650 $a Potawatomi Indians $x Social life and customs. 941 $a 1 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119020259.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D52DD466B69811EE8CC0EC492AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
