Abstract

“Our Earth, Our Bodies: Building our future from our core existence” The chapter follows a series of reflections by some of the key participants, including myself, about the process of transformation and the ways in which further work can be cultivated. The nuances that are presented in this book follow old ways of learning, led by the inquiries of a small student group who sought to promote cultural awareness across their public high school campus.
