Volume 4 with Writing Practices

Just as the Earth’s ancient patterns and pathways are undergoing seismic shifts, so too are our cultural landscapes—histories are being uncovered, outdated myths discarded, and new stories brought to light. What do we need to orient ourselves when the world we have known is coming undone and new configurations are still taking shape? In this moment of great loss, possibility, and transformation, we bring you stories of changing rivers, migrating forests, and colossal waves; blurred boundaries between human and animal, and between water and body; songlines that connect earth to sky, geological landscapes that reveal human histories, and prophecies that weave themselves into the land. The voices gathered here bear witness to the Earth’s changing face, listen to her evolving song, and offer ways to navigate our shifting landscapes.

Scott Momaday, Kerri ní Dochartaigh, Masatsugu Ono, Gheorghe Popa, Nathaniel Rich, Greg Sarris, Lauret Savoy, Jeremy Seifert, Chelsea Steinauer-Scudder, Ocean Vuong, Sarah Waiswa, Alexis Wright, Julian Yates.
