New Natives - Crowe, Thomas Rain

. .

Résumé :
New Natives: Becoming Indigenous in a Time of Crisis & Transition is a stirring call to reconnect with the land, community, and each other in an era of environmental upheaval. Award-winning poet and activist Thomas Rain Crowe blends memoir, cultural history, and passionate advocacy to explore how we can reinhabit our places-living in harmony with nature and drawing on the wisdom of those who have stewarded the Earth for generations. Set against the lush backdrop of the Southern Appalachian Mountains, Crowe's essays weave together personal stories, Indigenous perspectives, and urgent reflections on climate change, biodiversity, and sustainable living. He invites readers to imagine a future where diversity-of species, cultures, and communities-is not just preserved but celebrated as essential to survival. Complemented by Simone Lipscomb's evocative photography, New Natives is both a love letter to the natural world and a manifesto for a new way of being. From the philosophy of bioregionalism to the everyday beauty of rivers, forests, and wildlife, this book offers practical inspiration for anyone longing to live more consciously and courageously in the place they call home. For readers of Wendell Berry, Robin Wall Kimmerer, and E.O. Wilson, this is a work that will awaken your sense of belonging-to the land, to your neighbors, and to the greater Earth community. Whether you are an environmentalist, a lover of nature writing, or simply seeking a more rooted life, New Natives offers vision, guidance, and hope....
