Fresh Banana Leaves: Healing Indigenous Landscapes through Indigenous Science by Jessica Hernandez, PhD
hopeful
informative

Part of me wishes I had saved this for Decolonize December, but I'm also very glad I read this now. It definitely taught me about Spanish colonization and the racism in Mexico. I had no idea about those things whatsoever. So not only did it discuss colonization and the importance of Indigenous wisdom in rebuilding ecosystems, but it also went over cultures not often covered in Indigenous history.
