About this Event
In Mojave poet Natalie Diaz’s words, “The Colorado River is the most endangered river in the United States—also, it is a part of my body. / I carry a river. It is who I am: ‘Aha Makav. This is not metaphor.” This symposium is provoked by Diaz’s poem, “The First Water is the Body,” and convenes scholars, activists, artists, and spiritual practitioners diversely committed to the vitality of water and waterspaces. Amidst water crisis, we seek to share cosmovisions, bodies of knowledge, modes of communication that emerge from deep attention to water. In our interlocking articulations of water cosmologies, water crisis, and water power, we aim to open new paths of insight and collaboration toward collective healing.
