This is the first Proven Sustainable Conversation bringing together a wider collective to talk about the theme of water stewardship. The collective includes Alan Ereira, Kogi advocate and founder of the Tairona Trust, Four Arrows, Indigenous educator and Proven Sustainable Guiding Council member, Fred Tutman, Patuxent Riverkeeper, Grandmother Rabiah Nur, his comrade on the river, and Sox Sperry, Proven Sustainable's founder.
Through the discussion, we explore the profound connections between water, women, and the spirit of renewal. We delve into how water serves as a force of comfort and cooling, drawing from the Kogi knowledge that water spiritually and physically ties everything together. Discover how the inspirational power of water underpins the waterkeeper movement and the importance of direct experiences in understanding water's role in our lives.
Learn about practices that reconnect us to our primal bond with water as a life force and the central role women have always played in maintaining these connections. We also discuss how fear of water and nature can disrupt our ability to connect, and explore the Kogi’s Munekan Masha project. Understand the inherent deficiencies in environmental movements that lack spiritual connection.
Be inspired by the power of Cherokee women singing lullabies to both children and the earth during the hardships of the Trail of Tears, and the importance of keeping traditions alive simply because it’s the right thing to do. Join us for this enlightening conversation that celebrates the deep, intrinsic ties between water, women, and the spirit of the earth.
