NEWIEE Book Club: Exploring Braiding Sweetgrass

February 27, 2025 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

This event is not being recorded.

Sponsor:

The Rising Professionals Committee is thrilled to launch the NEWIEE Book Club- a space designed to remind us of our love for learning, foster critical thinking, and spark new connections with fellow professionals. Join us as we dive into Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, a beautifully written exploration of Indigenous wisdom, scientific knowledge, and the deep bond between humans and the natural world.

We’d love for all interested to join us in this thought-provoking discussion. Let’s celebrate curiosity, deepen our understanding, and grow together as a community.
