The Art of the Common Conversation

This week, the Washington Post ran an article entitled, “Liberal, Progressive - and Racist? The Sierra Club faces it’s white supremacist history” . That has set off a new wave of old conversations about race, privilege, power and the role of predominately white environmental organizations in shaping our current narrative about who we are in relationship to the environment.

I’ve always had a lot to say about this topic - and am working on a one-woman show about what it might be like to be in conversation with John Muir (here’s a taste) - but never would I have guessed that I would have gotten the chance to have a version of this conversation with the great, great grandson of John Muir, Robert Hanna.

Here’s the conversation we had on his podcast this weekend.
