What are the deeper reasons why our world is hurtling headlong toward social, ecological, and climate collapse? In her recently published book, The Story Is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis, author and activist Osprey Orielle Lake helps us discern these reasons in the dominant worldview based upon extraction and exploitation.

The book shows how the interlocking crises of colonialism, racism, patriarchy, capitalism, and ecocide have set us on this course, and opens a portal to an alternative path of restoration and justice. Building on her experience working with global leaders, systems-thinkers, climate justice activists, and Indigenous Peoples, Osprey weaves together ecological, mythical, political, and cultural insights to summon a new way of being and thinking—showing that another world is possible.

In this Deep Transformation Network live interactive conversation, Osprey will discuss with Jeremy Lent the central themes arising from her book and her work. As founder of the Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), Osprey has stood with Indigenous women land defenders around the world in their struggle for policies that prioritize social, racial and economic justice, and Indigenous and human rights. Jeremy will explore with Osprey how her experience of frontline activism has informed her thinking, and how the ancient story that is in our bones can lay the groundwork for an alternative Earth-centered, vibrant future.
