Join us as we (virtually) welcome Osprey Orielle Lake, Founder & Executive Director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN). She will speak on her newly published book "The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis." 

Author, activist, and changemaker Osprey Orielle Lake weaves together ecological, mythical, political, and cultural understandings and shares her experiences working with global leaders, systems-thinkers, climate justice activists, and Indigenous Peoples. She seeks to summon a new way of being and thinking in the Anthropocene, which includes transforming the interlocking crises of colonialism, racism, patriarchy, capitalism, and ecocide, to build thriving Earth communities for all.
