I just finished reading The Seed Keeper by Diane Wilson, a Native American writer and organizer collaborating with communities to create sovereign food systems for Native people. It’s a “story of the seeds within the context of actual Dakhóta history, crafted as a blend of fiction and history”. The book describes plants and animals as relatives, seeds and indigenous food being central to cultures, and colonial monocultures devastating Native communities and biodiversity for the earth. Sharing in case this is of interest to anyone looking for a fiction book to read on this topic :)
