The Walking People Reading Circle
March 26 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm EDT
In this Reading Circle, we will meet weekly (10 times) during the Spring Season, starting Wednesday, March 26th.
Every week on Wednesday we will meet through zoom to share about the part we have all read. There will be weeks with fewer words and weeks with more words. We follow the roadmap offered to us in the book.
All members of the Circle will have read the words for that week.
The gatherings all will follow the same rhythm.
We will create our Central Fire.
Take the time to link to the Ancestors who offered us these words.
We then will share our personal thoughts, insights on what we have read.
What caught our attention?
What will we remember?
As a group and in break outs.
We will close the loop of every gathering by expressing gratitude for the telling.
The Walking People by Paula Underwood
Keeper of a 10,000-year-old Oneida Oral History
“New shoots of all the varying grasses burst through the crusted, yielding earth
Each small fissure forming a minute valley
Out of which new life sprung”.
There was joy among the People
Earth began a new song
And the People
Voiced her melody”.
