Indigenous solutions we can all apply today to make our lives more sustainable and engage with earth and community from award-winning Dene activist and writer Katlia.
The Dene in Canada's North West territories have lived alongside nature for many generations. From battling environmental racism on the front lines of historical environmental protests, to innovating sustainable resources, to living a balanced life through effective individual and collective governance, the Dene have long protected Mother Earth from destruction through their intricate knowledge systems, natural laws, and age-old principles, which are shared here for the first time thank to the contributions of tribal elders.
This is ancient information, but it's new to those outside the Dene community, and Katlia's voice channels our collective energy toward surprisingly simple scalable solutions such as:
- sustainable, ethical food sources as a path toward food sovereignty
- intermittent renewables and innovative alternatives to heat and power homes
- housing systems incorporating green technologies into cultural ways of knowing that include living off grid
- cultural burning to mitigate out of control wildfires
Adhering proudly to these responsibilities and values, Katlia (pronounced cat-lee-ah) writes a Dene manifesto fit to address the state of emergency we're in. Informed by Katlia's decades-long award-winning work and advocacy as a writer and activist, and her life experiences as a Dene woman from the north, this book achieves global relevance by focusing on the local.
With evidence of how this all works for the Dene people, we see how it might work for us as well. This generous, pragmatic, and hopeful book shows us how to find coexistence with Mother Earth and embrace the wisdom of our local Indigenous communities.
Mother Earth Is Our Elder features 10 original black-and-white photographs.
