How Indigenous Cultural Resistance Can Restore the Earth, Recover Community, and Create Sustainable Futures

Rooted in Indigenous wisdom and a four-element framework, this book invites readers to rediscover the truth that caring for ourselves and caring for the living Earth are one and the same. Maceo Carrillo Martinet, PhD, builds on the work of Indigenous scholars like Robin Wall Kimmerer and Jessica Hernandez to share how not only are climate solutions still possible, they already exist, and they’re being practiced by communities around the world. This book offers a framework rooted in reciprocity, resistance, and kinship with the living Earth and is built around four life-giving elements: water, earth, fire, and air.

“Given the global scale of humanity’s impact, the need for ecological restoration is massive and omnipresent…”
