Protect Mother Earth: Organizing among Other-than-human-people

Please join us in this event honoring Latino/a/x Heritage Month co-sponsored by the Lane Center and University Ministry. This event is hybrid: please register for Zoom or in-person attendance. 

When we think of Community Organizing, we never consider the possibility of alliances with other-than-human people. Rooted in Indigenous traditions, this talk explores the Catholic ethical implications of conceiving a world where Earth beings exist and provides some guidelines on how to build relationships with them.
