AAAS SYMPOSIUM
Indigenous Ways of Knowing and STEM: Tensions, successes and possibilities |
SEED Graduate Institute Presents:
The most advanced scientific view has found that inside an atom, there are no longer any things : there is only a dynamic flux of process and relationship. This was an astonishing discovery, but it was not new. Indigenous people for millennia have seen the cosmos as a place of kinship – a place of harmony and beauty. Come join us as we explore the beginnings of a new language – a language that is now emerging through dialogues with Native elders, quantum physicists and other Western scientists. Come join us as we explore the connections between the Quantum realm of Energy and the Indigenous Spirit realm. Come join us as we explore Quantum Entanglement and Beauty.
