Dear Interfaith Reading Group Member,
I look forward to seeing you at the May 15 ZOOM meeting to discuss Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer.
Meetings are on the third Thursday each month at 1:00 p.m. EST
Tracy Marks will lead the discussion, prompted by the attached questions for reflection and discussion which she developed.
Tracy has also posted the questions on the Goodreads site: shttps://www.goodreads.com/group/show/.... She invites you to respond to these questions in writing, if they wish. On this site you will also see videos that elucidate the work of Dr. Kimmer’s work in engaging natural settings.
Our Interfaith Reading Group Coordinating Committee has decided to use Goodreads as the platform for organizing our announcements, schedules, future reading lists and discussion questions, etc. If you are yet to sign-up to Goodreads, instructions for given in the attached “Directions for Joining Goodreads Site.” I will continue to send the membership emails monthly about the upcoming book discussion, but if you wish to only use Goodreads and want me to remove you from the mailing list, just, well, email me .and I will remove you from the list.
Zoom link for all sessions:

The zoom links are working for me, Laurie, even though Goodreads doesn't show the full link.
Also at the bottom right of a post you have made is a choice to DELETE. There's also a choice to edit.
We two moderators can also delete other people's posts but I'd rather you figure out how to do it yourself.

If any of you wish to opoen the Zoom by clicking in and find the above does not work for you, open Smith's email as it will work. Or you can go in by opening the Zoom app then typing the meeting ID and the passcode.
See you tomorrow. Tracy, the Delete option on comments does not work on phone, but glad to find out it is available on laptop. website.
