概要

Rooted in Indigenous wisdom and a four-element framework, this book invites readers to rediscover and re-embody the truth that caring for ourselves and caring for the living Earth are one and the same.

Global knowledge, personal stories, and natural science for repairing environmental harm, restoring biodiversity, and rekindling cultural-ecological bonds—for readers of The Serviceberry and Fresh Banana Leaves


Healing the Land Teaches Us Who We Are helps us reconnect to the innate, embodied wisdom that many of us in modern Western society have abandoned—or been forced to forget.

Maceo Carrillo Martinet, PhD, builds on the work of Indigenous scholars like Robin Wall Kimmerer and Jessica Hernandez to share how not only are climate solutions still possible, they already exist—and they’re being practiced by communities around the world. Explicitly decolonial, this book offers a framework rooted in reciprocity, resistance, and kinship with the living Earth, and is built around four life-giving elements:

  • Water: How ancient Indigenous water-harvesting technologies, like the Pueblo peoples’ arid-garden systems, Peru’s siembra y cosecha de agua, and women-led practices, are vital for sustaining water, land, and community—and are essential for climate resilience
  • Earth: How successful community land stewardship—like Mexico’s ejidos, Maghrebian agdal, and Southeast Asian rotational farming—continue to support ecological health and human life in spite of colonial desecration
  • Fire: How “Indigenous fire”—frequent, low-intensity burns rooted in deep cultural relationship—functions as a crucial medicine for restoring forest health, preventing wildfires, and sustaining cultural and environmental resilience
  • Air: The profound connection between linguistic diversity and biodiversity—and how language can be weaponized to colonize and erase or nurtured to heal and awaken
  • Combining the four elements: How enduring human and ecological systems are built upon the interconnectedness of collective action, cultural appreciation, and diverse, restorative relationships with the natural world

Martinet anchors his survey of Indigenous Earth-based practices in the foundational nature of Indigenous science, sharing how they represent sophisticated systems of engineering, science, and philosophy actively destroyed and suppressed by colonial powers. These restoration efforts invite readers not only to learn but to participate—to re-member, practice, and defend the Indigenous ways of knowing, sustaining, and resisting that are vital to our collective future.

批評家のレビュー

“Martinet offers the twin gifts of planetary and social healing. You will close this book feeling restored and restorative and ready to share this book with everyone you know.”
—RAJ PATEL, author of Inflamed and Stuffed and Starved

“Humanity's biggest crisis is the severing of our life-sustaining ties with the Earth and all its beings. Martinet’s message is clear: Reconnect with and within nature and with each other, and learn especially from communities who have lived like this for generations.”
—ASHISH KOTHARI, environmentalist, facilitator at Global Tapestry of Alternatives, and coeditor of Pluriverse: A Post-Development Dictionary
