Through her publicist, Kimmerer declined an interview request. It became a New York Times best-seller in 2020. Over the years, the book “Braiding Sweetgrass” has garnered a wide audience through readers’ word-of-mouth recommendations. “But she also connected to the larger really significant issues around environmentalism and how we really need to be good stewards of this world that we're living in.” “It's a very human relatable story that I think I think a lot of people will find value in,” said Steve Tolson, director of Nazareth College’s Writing Center. Kimmerer’s talk comes on the heels of being named a MacArthur Fellow. The narrative of “Braiding Sweetgrass” weaves together scientific and Indigenous understandings of the natural world and our relationship with it. Kimmerer is a best-selling Indigenous author. Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of “Braiding Sweetgrass," will speak at Nazareth College on Tuesday, 10 years after the book was first published.
