Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World

By Tyson Yunkaporta

Categories: History

Aboriginal scholar Tyson Yunkaporta looks at global systems from an Indigenous point of view in Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World. Drawing on yarns, symbols drawn in sand, and pattern thinking from his Apalech Clan and wider Aboriginal knowledge, he explores land, kinship, learning and sustainability as alternatives to linear Western models of progress and top-down control.
