Book Discussion: All We Can Save

Join us for a conversation about the book All We Can Save, edited by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson & Katharine K. Wilkinson. This event is co-hosted by the South Burlington Energy Committee and the Library. It will take place in the Library Community Room.

There is a renaissance blooming in the climate movement: leadership that is more characteristically feminine and more faithfully feminist, rooted in compassion, connection, creativity, and collaboration. While it’s clear that women and girls are vital voices and agents of change for this planet, they are too often missing from the proverbial “table.” More than a problem of bias, it’s a dynamic that sets us up for failure. To change everything, we need everyone. 

Intermixing essays with poetry and art, this book is both a balm and a guide for knowing and holding what has been done to the world, while bolstering our resolve never to give up on each other or our collective future. We must summon truth, courage, and solutions, to turn away from the brink and toward life-giving possibility. Curated by two climate leaders, this book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save.

This book is available to borrow from the library. It is also available as an eAudiobook from the Green Mountain Library Consortium. Book group reserve copies are available at the SBPL circulation desk.

Discussion will be hybrid: in-person at South Burlington Public Library and online via Zoom. To join us remotely: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82538143783?pwd=UGpHa3NGNGg4OVZLbHlMNStLSldXUT09
