Podcast: Short WavePublished On: Fri Apr 22 2022
Description: Dr. Jessica Hernandez's new book examines the role of displacement — Indigenous peoples like her father, who was displaced by the civil war in El Salvador, and plants like the banana tree, brought from Asia to Central America — in science. Jessica, an environmental scientist, talks with Emily about how important it is to make sure that Indigenous people and their knowledge are centered as humans work to save or restore land in the era of climate change.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
