Let’s Talk About Prairie, History, And Language. For Communities So Focused On “native Plants”/”native

Let’s talk about prairie, history, and language. For communities so focused on “native plants”/”native gardening”/etc there’s so little acknowledgement or engagement with indigenous Americans and their history. 

When we talk about science, there’s a baseline assumption of objectivity. Science is Truth, something apart from messy cultural ideas. The reality is, culture and all it’s messes bleed into science, like here in ecology. We gotta be conscious of the histories we inherit in science.

19h45.

Pour une fois, l’oiseau ne s’effarouche pas.

Il faut dire qu’il est très occupé à observer le fond de l’eau.

L’habilité est étonnante. 

Comme le chat, juste avant de lancer son harpon, on a la sensation qu’il se tapit.
