Reconnecting with the Earth and Each Other - Claudia Peña and Erin Matariki Carr

Through colonization, hyper capitalism, and unaddressed trauma, many of us have forgotten how to play our part in the orchestra of the natural world. In this excerpt from a panel discussion, Claudia Peña and Erin Matariki Carr - two remarkable activists and legal practitioners who work on different continents but share a belief in the power of creative expression - offer ways we can all reconnect deeply to the entire web of life.
Peña is Co-Director of the Center for Justice at UCLA and Executive Director of the artist collective For Freedoms, and Carr is a leading Indigenous legal scholar and Rights of Nature activist in Aotearoa (New Zealand).

Growing our food and medicine is truly important to re educate...so we can de clutter and ... I feel indigenous people need to re lean the importance of this especially the more educated...❤

love this discussion.. our western colonization/captitalisstic lifestyle is so disconnected to Nature which is what we are and supports life.
