Being Together in Place

How place summons Native and non-Native people into dialogue to take up the challenging work of coexistence with each other and the nonhuman world

Being Together in Place explores the landscapes that convene Native and non-Native people into sustained and difficult negotiations over their radically different interests. Using ethnographic research and a geographic perspective, this book shows activists in three sites learning how to articulate and defend their intrinsic and life-supportive ways of being-particularly to those who are intent on damaging these places.
