Today: November Community Book Read – Braiding Sweetgrass

For November 2020, in honor of Native American Heritage Month, the DEI division is pleased to announce a community book read of Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer’s 2020 book “Braiding Sweetgrass.”

In this, her newest book, Kimmerer, a botanist in the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse and a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, combines her expertise in botanical sciences with traditional knowledge about plants gained through her cultural heritage.

This book read is open to ALL faculty, staff and students. Registrants will receive their own copy of the Kindle ebook to keep. Registration deadline is October 22 — but spaces are limited, so don’t delay!
