Greg Sarris is an author, professor, and is the Chairman of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and the current Chair of the Board of Trustees of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian. In this episode of Nature Revisited, Greg discusses his latest work, The Forgetters, a richly beautiful story cycle about remembering our shared histories and repairing the world. Recounting his early years, to discovering his native american heritage, Greg explains how stories and language are what makes us human, and how the lessons contained in the the stories of our indigenous ancestors contain the blueprints for a survivable future through a reconnection with nature and each other.
