Water is Life:

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: What does it mean for a classroom of college students in Minnesota to read these words? How can they contemplate the idea that water is life, considering both their Dakota neighbors in Standing Rock and the people of Gaza? This essay is a reflection on how I use water in my Minnesota State University undergraduate humanities courses to teach about climate change as the defining crisis of our moment, and its emergence from environmental racism, colonialism, and inequality.
