  • The Serviceberry: An Economy of Abundance – Robin Wall Kimmerer

    The Serviceberry: An Economy of Abundance – Robin Wall Kimmerer
    Dec 24 2024
    In this episode, we return to one of our most cherished stories: “The Serviceberry,” by Potawatomi botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer. Exploring how we can move away from an economy of scarcity to one rooted in relationship and gratitude, she draws our attention to the gift economies flourishing all around us to affirm that it is entirely within our power to create webs of interdependence outside the market economy. When we find the courage to honor the gifts given by the living world, the outcome, she says, is not only material, but spiritual. Read the essay. Read the transcript for “Practical Reverence,” our interview with Robin on her latest book, which was inspired by this essay. Artwork by Studio Airport. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • When the Prince of Heaven Sleeps – Roger Reeves

    When the Prince of Heaven Sleeps – Roger Reeves
    Dec 17 2024
    In a countermelody to the media’s persistent portrayal of Black bodies as working tirelessly, in constant motion, poet Roger Reeves centers images of Black men in postures of rest and repose. Evoking Muhammad Ali slumbering in a four-poster bed, John Coltrane washing dishes within the four walls of his house, DMX watering orchids, and Mike Tyson caring for his flock of pigeons, Roger reflects on the stillness and silence of their interior worlds as a protest against the control of capitalistic time.

  • Breath-Space and Seed-Time – David Hinton

    Breath-Space and Seed-Time – David Hinton
    Dec 10 2024
    In this narrated essay and six-poem sequence, acclaimed translator and poet David Hinton finds an uncannily literal translation of modern science’s “space-time” in yü chou—one of ancient China’s most foundational cosmological concepts. He invites us to contemplate the fabric of time and space as a kind of primordial breath, drawing on the ideograms for yü chou to show that time is not a metaphysical river moving past, but an all-encompassing present that renders the Cosmos alive. An epilogue of poems delivers us into an elemental world where time is woven with the sacred. Read the essay and poems. Discover more stories from our latest print edition, Volume 5: Time.
